shivering as I lay on cold concrete
your being provides me with no warmth.
pulling tighter, three walls around me
where my soul would anchor another memory.
the sun starts to rise and I know I must cherish
each moment like it is my last,
always knowing it was not in my control.
I did not choose when I was allowed to feel.
that was you.
