As the last rays depart from the frostbitten ground,
The room holds its breath in a dark silence profound
In the silence where laughter once filled the air,
Echoes of memories linger, filled with care.
This winter never made me feel so lone
I wander through memories, forever alone.
The moving waters are now still and frozen
Stricken by death’s cold embrace that has left me broken
An emptiness, a void I find myself in
The silent cold air on my face, raises a storm within
My fingers trace the path of the old dusty frame
I can’t help but feel your absence, whispering your name
That love that once flourished is now gone
The flakes fall upon me disengaging from the clouds
In my hearts quiet chambers there is a cold air
the floral garden of memories is now bare
The cold leaves that perish and depart from the tree
Grow a fear in me that the memories of you will flee
Each crystal tear that I flow
Bury my sorrows deep in the snow
Your laughter and words have filled my mind
and oh there is nothing but coldness I find
This winter, Even though we are miles apart
Your spirit I feel counting the faint stars
Knowing the fog will slowly creep away
and that the trees will be soon full of leaves that sway
Oh deep within me I know
A new summer will come bringing light to the day
And the snow will carry my sorrows and would melt away.
