Our eyes met,
My heart stilled
You talked for hours
I listened rapt
Your laugh, I loved
Your smile, I loved
Your lips, I watched

You held me in your arms
We spoke of our lives
Whispered secrets
Counted the stars
You kissed my hair
I touched your chest
You guarded me
warmed me

Shielded from the wind
A fire was ignited
Protected from the cold of loneliness

One sided, short lived
Turned cold, turned back
I didn’t interest you, wasn't enough
I understood, accepted

Friends?

Gone
I reached out, cried out
Crystalline tears
Once warm, Frozen
You left
My heart, you took
I am hollow
Aching;
uncertainty, self-loathing, unworthy,disgusted
Burning for you;
I, am an ember
You, are a tundra
Frozen,
Your soul

My warmth is gone
I am gone
