Much Too Cold For You

Never will or would ever be again.

You wanted someone else to need you,

But I just couldn’t be that one

To need you the way you need

I was too cold to feel that

Too empty to feel

You were so warm

I was just

too cold for

you and

me

heartbreak

    The realistic nature of your nonet hits your reader with a force. Well done.

    I love the realisation from the MC here, that it's not the other person's fault, but it's still so sad! Excellently written!

    Love that! Love how you tied everything into cold and heat!

    Ugh sometimes you just can’t warm up and open up. Sometimes you just don’t feel safe enough or ready yet. And some people don’t want to wait. So complicated
