I
felt
the
crisp
air
hit
my
face
and
I
wanted
to
lie
down
-
right
there
on
the
wet
ground
.
Instantly,
I
felt
the
weight
of
need
for
a
good
hard
cry
.
Perhaps
it
was
the
sight
of
rain
-
the
relief
of
it
-
in
the
middle
of
December
with
its
cursed
cold
.
And
,
as
I
padded
to
my
car
,
I
thought
of
Kale
:
wet
with
rain
shroud
of
darkness
starving
for
snowflakes
and
maybe
...
laughing
.
But
oh
,
how
I
longed
to
cry
then
.
To
wear
my
face
in
tears
.

It
engulfs
me
and
makes
me
nostalgic
and
makes
me
want
to
curl
up
into
a
ball
protected
from
feeling
and
from
thoughts
of
you
.

suddenly
my
