Untitled - January 17, 2003

Oh what a difference a day makes,
between a year past
and the days yet to come.

Watching the breath hang heavy
against the coldest
of winter nights,
even as our thoughts
freeze
for the simple moment.

Every inhale is noisy
in the silence,
and every changing puff
becomes a solid cloud
of life
that breathes once
and dies in the next instant.
