huddled against the wind
cutting through the hope
the last pieces of love and kindness
hanging in tatters
a memory of warmth and light
fading with life.
huddled against the rain
seeping through the coat
the last pieces of food and energy
growling inside
a memory of sated satisfaction
fading with life.
huddled against the ice
weighing on the skin
the last pieces of civil humanity
shattering about
a memory of safe society
fading with life.
huddled against the cold
numbing deep the heart
the last pieces of the gentle touch
lingering in dreams
a memory of kindness caress
fading with life.
huddled against the night
darkening the soul
the last pieces of light crumble
blindness around
a memory of a brightened face
fading with life.
huddled against the fear
quivering in the moment
the last pieces of time unfold
fluttering futilely
a memory of all that was
fading with life.
