Harsh Cold Winter

It’s a harsh cold winter You’re gone and I’m so bitter I sat front-row seat As I watched our love wither Heart gouged by the splinters You’ve silenced your ringer And my feelings for you Oh, they still linger… It’s a harsh cold winter Choked sobs and silent whimpers Sparks of love burned out Leaving ashes and cinder Sleepless nights Bottles of whiskey Skipped meals My love, do you miss me? It’s a harsh cold winter I’ve always been an overthinker Should I move on? Or reach out? letting my healing progress hinder Week old sheets that smell of you Tears as wide as the ocean People come and go But all I ever wanted was your devotion

I enjoyed reading this poem of rhymed quatrains. Good ending, "All I ever wanted was your devotion."
