the frigid wind….

The frigid wind stings her cheeks

as she buries her face into his arms.

Scared to look up

that he might see

a glimpse of love in her eyes.

Blurry Streetlights

Looking past the blurry streetlights.

Straining to see the stars.

Swallowing back the tears.

There has to be something more.

Heart in pieces

no one knows

hidden behind every smile.

When all is lost

I feel you close

and maybe that is enough.
