Hands Gone Cold
My feet begins staggering
My weight feels off
My vision starts fading
I feel I cannot talk
Hands gone cold
My touch is almost gone
All these feelings
Makes me feel I am old
My hearing is silencing
My nerves begin to twitch
As I feel my whole body
I feel nothing but an itch
An itch for love
I feel I must scratch
But this itch is hard to reach
For it is on my back
Even though I try to scratch
The strength is something I lack
As I reach further
I feel it's within arms reach
I begin to scratch this feeling
My hand tingles down to my feet
A feeling worth dying for
A feeling to have and to hold
My heart is filled with warmth and love
My hands are no longer cold
