"cold December"

Yesterday left as soon as it came
Bleeding out in silence
Cries out a thunderous pain

Gone is the serenity of summer
To a day I ought not remember
Replaced by the winds of a Cold December

As I look out my window
And ponder a time gone by
I wonder where it all went
As I lay down and cry

It's all I can handle
To be alone and distraught
All alone in my head
Deep down in thought

As I stand on the edge
Right back where I started
Not knowing who I am
Lost and lethargic

A whisper that carries
Deep through my soul
Is a haunting reminder
Of a love gone cold
