Inspired by the song 'Cold'

Contest by Robert James Liguori

Cold

COLD

        Me sinking in cold !
        Need little warmth.
        Why have you been so cold ?
        Hold your tongue
        and let me love !

        Why have you been so cold ?
         My is already sold
         to my amour !
         Now all hope is gone .
          Pretending to be bold !
          But feeling cold even under Sun.
          Need little warmth.

        Why have you been so cold ?
         My love once was untold .
         But now I unfold 
        each page of my book of love.
        Your reciprocation I do deserve.

        I preserved my love in core of heart.
        How can you ignore ?
        How can you hurt ?
        My yearnings shining as gold
        Lust rippled rolled.
        Emotive urge claiming dynamism,
        Yet feeling I am dying !
        With deep wound in heart
        I am drowning down in living hell !
        
        Growing old.
        No strength left to carry load
        Me sinking in cold.
        Stretching my hand, please hold.
        Me sinking in cold.
        Need little warmth.

Surprised there's not lots of comments on your song. Maybe a video to pair it. I liked it though.
