the snow made me feel cold

outside and in.

so i warmed by making a fire in our fireplace

and drinking tea.

i stared at the flames

watching them flicker back and forth

eating away at the wood

never ending

until their fuel runs out

turned to ashes

useless.

useless.

that’s me.

what was the point

i didn’t know.

not anymore.

one month it had been now

since she left.

one month and i was barely functioning.


Midori.

Midori, what have you done to me.

i must’ve fallen too hard for you

because

now i’ve hit rock
                               bottom.
