Cold

This is a poem about discovering how your mind works and not to be ashamed if its different than other's minds. Its also about knowing that you still need love and comfort even if you are different.

Cold

Hale Strider

My lungs fill and exhale

I stand and rotate

No one understands how Cold

No one understands how my head stills

How can there be a cure for the unknown

Gathered from inconclusions

Drawn from emptiness

I need a solution that gives me happiness

Doctor, can you tell me what’s wrong?

What “cure” will I receive?

What wrong conclusion will you make?

I need a person to make me alive

I want to feel what others feel

I need to feel Love

I need Forgiveness

I need Comfort and Touch

Come a Little Closer

You will not find what you need

You will find what I need

For I cannot give you want and need

The Cold cannot be driven away

Only locked away

You shared great experience and wisdom in this poem.
"Come a Little Closer
You will not find what you need
You will find what I need
For I cannot give you want and need"
The above lines. Is realistic and true. We only accept what we need. Thank you Hale for sharing the amazing poetry.

As coyote said, there truely is great wisdom in the poem.
We have so many things to give to others but we do not have that one thing, they truely need.
The lines I can relate the most to are

"I want to feel what others feel
I need to feel Love
I need Forgiveness
I need Comfort and Touch"

For when I was hot with depression last year, I lost all my feelings and my soul had become this empty void like a black hole sucking everything in...
It's been a whole year now and am glad I am recovering... slowly but gradually..
Weldone! Keep it up!
