Fear wraps itself around me like a blanket,
as I see my breath fog,
as I exhale into the cold.My doors locked,
I close my eyes;
trying to ignore the bitter chill of winter,
as it tries to suffercate me with it's presence.
The flood waters are rising,
in the despair of which I swim,
trying to keep my head above the raging waters of life.
I open my eyes and look into the rear-view mirror,
and see only an empty street littered with lights.
I pull my worn sweater closer to my skin,
numb from the black ice of the night's wind.
I close them again,
and lean back into the vinal seats,
that stick to my skin like they were melted there;
This is home-for now.
