She came like morning snow
Cold and silent
While I stood there
Hating that I hated her
Because I loved to love her
And even then wanted to wipe away this frost between us
Melt away her freezing reign
With a warm and forgiving embrace
But my wish was interrupted
By the clacking of hangers stripped bare
The skeletons of what we had laughing
As she drug a garbage bag of her things
Through our room and down the stairs
And when she closed the door behind her
I listened to her footsteps on the walkway fade
Pulled the covers over me
A chill settling into my bones
And closed my eyes, resolved to stay there
Until she came back to me
