Looking for you

I set out across the lake

In a big winter jacket

Tall, warm boots

And some snow pants too

Well prepared for my journey to you

I pass by someone

They’re shaking in the cold

I give them my jacket

But they don’t thank me

Because what else would I do

And they add it to their pile

I see a person

Who’s feet are tinged blue

Missing they’re shoes

So I give them mine

And when they think I’ve moved on

They take out their other pairs

Someone is standing there

They don’t need anything at all

But I give them my snow pants

Even through they have more than me

So while I need the help

I help those who don’t

I see one more person

And I don’t have anything left to give

And they seem to have plenty

So I ask for something

But they flip it around

Now I’m giving them my spirit

The last person I see

It’s you, finally

My soulmate for life

I walk towards you

But I’m so broken

Your eyes pass right over me
