Staring out at the newly-made
winter wonderland,
I see the emptiness of my day
without you.
I feel the melancholy tugging
on my heart.
Thinking about how we came to be
such friends,
I wonder how I'd make it through
without you.
I guess life would be vastly altered now
if you left.
Trying to stem the aching tide
of sadness,
I tell myself to be okay
without you.
If I have to handle one more loss,
it'll break me.
