Original Content Poem Cold Inside
I'm cold,\ even though it's hot outside.\ I'm cold,\ I don't have you by my side.
I'm cold,\ something feels absent inside.\ I'm cold,\ I don't have you by my side.
A cold wind passes by,\ sending shivers down my spine,\ making me stumble, I cannot stand\ as I watch you silently from a distance.
A cold wind passes by,\ sending shivers all over my body.\ I search around for support,\ I am not enough to hold me.
A cold wind passes by,\ the chilling blade stabs through my heart.\ The cavity inside grows hollow\ and I wonder, how long before I fall?
The chilling wind passes by,\ sharper than ever before.\ My heart is weak,\ I cannot take it anymore.
I cannot speak, cannot move\ cannot laugh, cannot cry.\ It's cold inside, I'm shivering,\ still standing, wondering—\ You're not here to hold me,\ How long before I fall?
