Day 12

Today is Valentine's Day. The day of hearts and warm hugs. Today is far from warm. Snow covers my head and ice cold winds burn my face. No hugs for me today. Hugs that could melt the frost in my heart and soothe the aches from my burnt cheeks. No hugs for reasons that are obvious. I'm separated by earth and water streching beyond the reach of my sight, from the person I am not even sure will be there when I try go beyond the horizon. For the lucky ones spending this day of hearts with love ones, enjoy it because there are those that stare out of the window with a cup of coffee warming their hearts wishing they were besides those they left at home.
