My body is so warm, warmer than the freezing rain,
the freezing rain outside.
My nose is stuffed up, stuffed up like
a clogged faucet.
My toes, so cold, so cold like
tiny ice cubes under my sneakers.
My voice, so scratchy, like sandpaper,
and an itchy purple sweater.
My eyes, so thin, and filled with tiredness
Just to fall asleep,
to the pitter-patter
of
the
rain.
