Frost shimmered across the ground sparkling in the early morning sunshine. 

It was crisp and cool, even though the sun was shining brightly...

 I stepped outside, the grass crunching under my black winter boots. 

The lighter flickered on, the flame dancing in the light breeze. 

I lit my cigarette, and looked out across the fields.

 I blew out a breath of smoke, watching as it spiraled up into the November sky. 

I tapped it and saw as the ashes drifted to the ground by my feet.

 Just as the tears of my love had when I walked out the door, silent and soft.
