Cold
air
blows
into
my
veins
.
The
concrete
slides
past
as
I
stiffly shuffle
up
to
the
porch
.
The
mailbox
creaks
open
and
closed
.
Both
doors
slam
now
.
I
climb
the
stairs
and
fumble
for
my
keys
.
Every
day
I
harbor
a
tiny
glimmer
of
hope
.
But
when
I
open
the
door
it
is
dark
black
inside
and
no
one
else
is
home
.
