I Was Cold Beside You

Holding your hand.
Our fingers inter twined.
In a knot of emotions.
My eyes fixed on you.
And all the freckles on your arms.
I caught your eye.
Staring… Not at me but at the next man.
A replacement for me.
I guess to fill your void of love.
And to create the void for me.
Our hands unlock for the last time. Leave me again.
We both know you will.
I was cold beside you.
Like that flame of love that has finally burned out.
