Cold Winters Morn

As I lay here on a cold winters night , Reached behind me,you were not there . For some reason you were out of site , I looked and your pillow was bare . On that cold winters night I could not sleep, Kept reaching,trying to feel you near . Out of my mind you could not seep , Through out the night you did not appear . The sad feeling of being all alone , Oh,what a night it became to be . Reason for the absence was unknown , For a cold winters night absentee . On this cold winters morn did I awake to see , Was it my heart that you did not adorn . Or a dream inside of my head to be , On this cold winters morn . Copyright Susan Martin(2008)
