As the night
seeps in, I feel the icicles on my spine.
The air, bitter from your presence.
I remember your arms like branches
keeping me safe.
Now snapped like twigs from the tree of my soul.
With you here, I was at peace.
You were a soldier guarding the fort that was my mind and body.
Now, unprotected, I am cold and alone in this devious world.
Their lies tempting me, their cruel words slashing at my conscience.
Where do I turn?
End of the line, one way train going nowhere fast.
This is me without you my love.

Very good poem, I would feel the same way if my love is gone
