It's cold

HollyGolightly

It's cold here with the heating on 

I guess they don't tell you, how to hide away from that type of of weather 

We never get it that bad 

They're say it's the drafts, you can patch them up 

 

It's still cold here even buried in dior blankets and plush pillows

It's still cold here when I get my tea from my favorite bat printed mug,

As I walk up the stairs in my cosy nightware and dressing gown 

It's still cold...... Even when the sun is blazing 

And when the drafts were fixed 

The iciness blew in 

And even when they were able to get rid of the cold 

It was forever tarnished within 

 

I still feel cold 

A month later 

And then I realized 

The cold doesn't leave 

It always creeps 

The cold is always inside me

So why chose me, pretty please

    The cold here sounds literal but could be metaphorical as well. A lovely poem that can be taken either way. Lovely

      Loving someone who who's toxic isn't an easy thing. When they leave, the emptiness you feel inside is cold and no matter what person comes to you, throws themselves at you. You have that experience in the back of your mind. Every heartfelt message feels fake and so does every compliment. So you end up with cold viod that no one can fill because the remnants of loving someone who hurt you over and over never goes.
