Cold and Got Colder
Kate Stables
All of this moving making me miss you
Letting me love you before ever fleeing
The ones that feed me, then coming home hungry
And only half healthy and heavy to hold onto
Hook, line and sinker
I miss it so strongly
Cold and got colder, stood by the water
Looking and listening, was thirsty for swimming
And lying face down here where it’s been frozen
While breathing slowly, feel the ice shifting
Hook, line and sinker
I miss it so strongly
Sick and got shifty, and quick to get weary
Forgetting to breathe
Hook, line and sinker
I miss it so strongly
