the darkness settles
upon my shoulders
like a familiar winter coat
hugging me like a memory
worn just right from
being pulled out
and on too often
but there is very little warmth
left in this embrace
there is a cold settling
deep in my bones
I want to fight it
but I have no strength
left of my own
I need your hands
to lift me, hold me close
let the warm brightness
of your love radiate through me
