It’s cold tonight. Even though the ghosts in the fire jump and reaches for the stars they can never touch I am still cold. A body is pressing against mine, I don’t know whose it is Just that it’s not yours. The smell his cheap cologne mix with my cigarette stained breath and earth fire It doesn’t smell like home It doesn’t smell like you I can feel his hand running up and down my spine I hate that you never touched me like that Why didn’t you love me like that? His arms are around me now when I see your face You’re not looking at me I guess I’m just a shawdow
