Winter can be harsh

A time without hope

A time without love

So you want to take out the rope

Life can be stuck

Stuck in a hole

A hole the winter made

Deep within your soul

The green grass turns white

Just like your skin

As you sit at the window

Very slowly, turning thin

The trees hang down

Packed under all the snow

And will never come up again

Until they see the spring glow

But when it does end

Sometimes I cry

Because I realize

That I didn’t die

But some people love Winter

And I don’t know how

They play in the snow

I need their joy right now

Because last Winter

It all changed

When you left me

And you left me deranged

I’ll never be the old me

Because when Winter starts to come

It comes hard

And it makes me numb

I laid there for months when you left

I felt like I was dropped

I didn’t get up

Until finally the chill stopped
