cold

Is it the gentle breeze or my soft bed;
my fluffy pillows or my warm blanket;
the cold morning water from the shower or the just the sound of running water;
the minty scent of my shampoo or the milky feel of my soap;
the soft silky feeling of my new shirt or the feel of my cold hair on my face?

Is it the empty living room?
Or the dining room where there's nothing available for breakfast?
Perhaps it's when nobody's there to say goodbye before you leave for work...

Is it cold?
Or is it just me?
Is it the things that surround me?
Or the things that are not around...

...that make me miss home more than ever.
