It Was In Winter
I remember it was during winter
When your heart sulked and withered
I came by in the night with my flicker
I sang to you with glitter
It was in winter that you made me sigh
Waking up in the morn
Your image lingering in my mind
From my sojourn I pondered through the ice
I had fallen for you head over heels
As you were affable and benevolent to me
It was in winter that you held my hand
Mingled through the crowd for my embrace
I had found that ubiquitous lady in my life
Its time to free ourselves and wiggle
It was here that we first kissed
It was in winter that I saw tears drip on your cheeks
Obliviously your heart was broken
And am sorry I didn’t notice it hurt you
I had left you with pieces of your broken heart in the flesh
I am sorry that I was face valuing
It was in winter that I had come to say sorry
My flowers tucked in my coat neatly
The morning coldness beating against my cheeks
I had my breath for my guilt was too much
At your place I could feel the emptiness, you had left
Summer came by and you were nowhere
Scratching the earth for your love
But you were gone for a new beginning
You had endured a lot but hear my plea
And I will wait for winter to hold your hand and rekindle our love
