Cold

Your reaction was priceless when I told you I loved you. They surrounded your house and I couldn't retreat. I was embarrassed beyond being naked in a mob scene, The way that you scared me was a talent so sweet. I turned around, mortified, to see you there smiling. A smile I've never seen on your face so concrete. You jumped in my arms and I lifted you sideways, Never again with the taste of defeat. With tears in my eyes as I kissed you so gently, Never before was my life so complete. "I'll never let go," you whispered to my ear, so... And then I woke up from my cold, lonely sleep.
