Colder

I constrict and recoil from the bitterly cold wind

The sun so bright it hurts through the clear sky

Soft melancholy music bounces from the perfect acoustics

And I drink my despair ravenously as I cry

My winter's pain is almost too much today

Profound sadness shoves me violently, 

tearing my old sweater

scuffing my worn shoes

I mutter some passive nonsense to myself

Hoping tomorrow it will all go away

Hoping tomorrow I'll find someone besides

me to accuse
