[Poem] The World

[dahlia_moon]

The World

your fingers touch the cold snow
chills sweep into them
and make you shiver

the moon shines brightly above
but, oh, it looks so far away
the light from it does not reach you

the stars hang, twinkling
as if minding their own business
and you wonder, briefly, what it'd be like to hang next to them

but you abandon such silly thoughts
for fantasies like these
make you seem as lonely as the stars

the loneliness creeps up into you like the cold snow
you hate the coldness of the snow
            of the loneliness

and makes you wonder,
how do the stars keep each other warm
on such cold nights?
