I'm sick
and I can't tell if it's the weather
or the fact you left
the symptoms began that night
inability to sleep
loss of appetite
so on and so on
and the doctor said its normal
for the season
he said the cold weather
can affect the mind
but all I remember
was the cold touch
of when you held my body
for the last time
and the nights are longer
it happens in the fall
but they last forever
when I can't roll over
and touch your face
and I can't remember
if it was that night
or that morning
that you had emptied everything
you had ever felt
and washed it down the shower drain
while I still slept
under your sheets
cold
I'm so ******* sick
and I wish it was
just this weather
