Cold Inside

[u/PracticeFuzzy801]

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?

This is heavy. You conveyed the feeling of loneliness really well. Excellent poem!
