Frozen Together
Enduring the first major snow storm of the season
Frost touches the tips of my fingers
Raw with chill as it lingers
Our eyes glazed with winters sight
Zero temperatures with sharp cold stingers
Enveloped by the sheer whiteness that surrounds us
Never-ending wind whistles day and night
Trying to gather as many logs to build a fire
Our only hope for survival is a little flame
Getting warm will save us from freezing to death
Everything we need to help keep the cold out
The strength of these walls protects us
Hearing the blizzard winds echoing throughout the chilly night
Everything's frozen solid within our sight
Remembering we can withstand any storm

I love writing just about everything but some of my personal favorites are romance, criminal, horror, and fantasy. I'm also an avid traveler I love traveling solo because I have a lot more fun adventures and the experience is more exciting.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
