A little chilly

It's been a little chilly these past few months. In more ways than one but I guess that's winter for you. The chill usually feels good on my skin as I'm usually quite warm but I'm having goose bumps more often lately. I'm really realizing that I don't have a good winter coat these days and I'm left to try and brave the cold without one. Luckily I have shelter but sometimes I feel frozen to the bone like I'll never get warm again. I find myself really hoping to wake up to spring and that breaks my heart. Winter used to be my favorite season because it wasn't so bleak back then but these days it's colder than it has ever been. There is more wet shoes and runny noses even though it's not raining and my eyes and skin are dull. It's getting to the point where I don't think I'll ever see spring or summer again and I'm scared. I wish someone was there to hold my hand when it's cold because then I'd at least be warm there. I miss being warm-handed. I miss smelling berries and burying my head in cotton. Things are usually different in the winter. Happy New Year.
