We need to separate

to see the life we’ve made,

to leave our house

where someone waits, patiently,

warm beneath the sheets;

to don layers of armor,

sweater, coat, mittens, scarf,

to stride down the frozen road,

putting distance between us,

this cold winter morning,

to look back and see,

on the hilltop, our life,

lit from inside.
