So cold

[Monika]

Watching as short breaths become visible
I lay still, staring at the stars
Silently they speak to me
Whispering soothing wonders
So cold my limbs should shake
A figure bathed in strength
Outlasting another's last breath
Solemnly moves sideways
Wishing the other farewell
So cold his heart should break
Soft dew alights
Fearfully stealing a moments rest
Awaiting the sad return of the sun
Once again taking to flight
So cold still resting light
Clouds form around peaks
Comforting their solitary might
Worn faces gently caressed
Hide in momentary enchantment
So cold in vain delight
