A Gentle Chill Has Arrived

A Gentle Chill Has Arrived... 

A gentle chill has arrived,

The air is calm, the breeze revived.

The sun now hides its golden light,

As evening falls earlier each night.

Clouds gather thick in the endless skies,

A misty veil before my eyes.

Dew glistens on the grass at dawn,

The warmth of summer feels long gone.

The craving for tea grows strong inside,

As silence fills the world outside.

Books line the shelves, a cozy sight,

Yet loneliness lingers, cold as the night.

Your absence echoes in every sound,

Your memory wraps this room around.

The wind whispers softly through the air,

As if carrying your fragrance somewhere.

I gaze through windows into the dark,

Searching for you in every spark.

Where is the laughter that lit my days?

Each thought of you brings warmer rays.

Snuggled under blankets tight,

Still, I yearn for your embrace tonight.

Without you, winter feels incomplete,

Even dreams of warmth seem bittersweet.

The kettle hums, the teacup waits,

But silence lingers, filling the space.

Even the steam rises dull and bare,

Missing the joy we used to share.

The lamp casts shadows across the wall,

In every shape, your presence calls.

Loneliness dances in the flickering glow,

As my heart aches for the you I know.

Darkness falls swiftly, claiming the day,

The sun's warmth seems far away.

Yet with you, even the cold would bloom,

Every moment would banish gloom.

Winter whispers love in its chill,

But without you, time seems still.

Your name lives in every thought of mine,

Your essence weaves through every line.

So come, make this winter bright,

Your warmth would turn the cold to light.

A gentle chill has arrived, it's true,

But every season feels empty without you.
