Remember

I remember the winter 

I locked myself in

For a week writing

A story called '4% Deal'.

I ventured out 

Onto the balcony 

For a smoke,

To watch ice melt.

I remember that winter

I wrote about a man 

Remembering a love,

Losing yet another.

That winter in Berlin-

The last time I cried,

Reading Emily Bronte's 

Remembrance, giving up.
