Slowly getting colder degree by degree
Feeling the chills all through my body
Melting into a puddle of ice
Numbing taking over my all of me

The bitter cold of the sharp wind
Comes slicing through my body
Leaving me unprotected
From all the dangers around

Fingers turning blue and losing circulation
Eyes stinging from the pain
Teeth chattering so quickly
Quickly losing ability to breathe

I feel so bare and exposed
With no where to hide
Closing my eyes I wait
For the next new day

It was early morning when I first started writing this. I was just really cold, plain and simple.
