Can you smell the winter?

Because I do

The same way

I feel your heart

Day after day

Slowly… painfully

Drifting away

As the weather get colder

And the sun says bye, bye

My soul aches

Aches at the thought

Of YOU

Of your absence

Of the fact

That soon enough

You will hide away

Like the falling leaves under

Winters freezing snow

And I won’t be there in time

To dig you up from all that

Messy, heavy, whitey, blankety layer

Of pain, loneliness, madness, hatred, Sadness, disappointment and so on

*

But you know what

One day

All that ice will melt away

Together with our grudges

And Eventually…

Spring will come again

To wreck our walls of ice cold

Ill feelings, bitterness and resentment

But I am scared

Cause I don’t know whether

By that time

You will be there too?!…
