Winter Depression
Like a madwomen
Hibernation is key
When the streets are cold and lonely
And I lye awake in solitude
Battling the disease of my mind
And the ever present thoughts
that I am tainted and unlovable
So I barricade myself from life
And ferret out the constant chatter
In my brain
And I cry every morning
For the sun to return again
And peace to bring a smile
To my lonely heart
if winter doesn't break me
Nothing can
For the cold is insanity
That bites bitterly
At simple souls like me.
