A distant emptiness clouds my mind...
But I remember the warmth of those hugs. And when I sit...I can't help but look on either side of me.
Just to see no one.
Those hands of mine that used to wave excitedly in the air now lay dead at my side waiting to wipe away tears.
And I feel lonely.
I sat on the curb...at midnight and stared at the one streetlight in the distance. My thoughts tripped over each other and tumbled and crashed into a confusing cascade. Falling down and down.
It was cold.
And I needed a hug. A warm embrace to catch my wandering soul.
