I am walking alone

By whispers in the night

The crisp air hurts
My rosy cheeks
For I am alone
Walking the path
That some used to take
Around the area
That we wish we didn’t know

And I can still hear the voices
The laughter that lingers
That now haunts my mind
And the memories that lurk
In the perse sky

I turn my head
And no one is there
Nothing at my side
Only the air that reminds me
That there is no one there
To confide

The grass
The swings
The water
My dreams
I shared
With some ((one))
Other than me

I can cry
And no one will hear
The things I tell myself
My own lilliputian lie
That I am "okay"
That I am fine

Each footstep I take
In the tears that I awake
And every move I make
'I am walking alone'

    It is very descriptive and very vivid. I could feel myself in the woods you described. Very well written.
