The Cold

The Cold

A Poem by Mariah Lynn Thompson

The cold mountain air chaps my skin,
The wind is frigid upon my face.
My heart's too cold to let thee in,
And for none, is there a warm place.

I really don't like the cold.

My hands are frozen; I can't feel my fingertips,
Blood can't flow quickly through me.
I'm feeling numb and my heartbeat skips.
Not from the cold, but from thee.

I really don't like the cold.

I shiver most unpleasantly, although I feel no thing,
I am naked, and have no clothes to keep me warm.
When you promised me warmth, I knew you were bluffing,
Now I sit here trembling in the storm.

I really don't like the cold.

Suddenly, I feel warn inside!
My tremors completely stop.
I look up too see the landslide,
I didn't make it to the top.

I really don't like the cold
