niche

 

luck brought me my niche

saved me

 

the cold was there   

i felt it

 

sought safe harbor ever since 

in warm bodies

 

because fear

is a great driver

 

one whom i respect   

and terror

 

looms close on its heels

yet you know

 

and i know

there are no safe harbors

This is so 'depictionary' of a universal human condition, that even without recourse of safe haven we can have warmth and companionability at our level. Wonderfully expressed. At least that's how it came across to me, at this reading. Thanks for sharing. /Rik.
