i was also alone the entire time.

doe-eyed, ruby lips
and frozen bones
scarves and coats
breathing winter air
tiny hands clutching
nothing but pennies
rain and sleet
but never snow
white shadows deceive
and i wait for the hours ahead
only getting colder
transparent veins
blue to bluer
pale to paler
ghost skin.
