Day 120: “Cold Hands”


I think I need to start wearing gloves

Every day

All the time

My hands are always cold


When my hands are cold,

My toes are cold

My arms are cold

And my head is cold


When my head is cold,

My shoulders are cold

My lungs are cold

And my heart is cold


All of me

is cold


If my hands are warm,

Maybe all of me could be warm again


I just don’t want to be cold
