Winter's Mind
Temptations and desires fade
A heaviness pervades your quilt
Shadows pilfer heaven’s joy
Every flower doomed to wilt
Resistance born from a hearth
Solitary feelings float around
The pain of dejection persists
Dreams chained to the ground
Winter’s mind is a lonesome buffer
Dulled senses reluctant to cope
A rainbow’s fate is annihilation
Here dies every woeful ounce of hope
Mystic eyes veiled by heaps of pity
Ruined tears form a crystal glaze
Relief is but a shameless unicorn
Time worth the price of your days
Wishful thinking is a trite melody
Nature’s purpose obscured by lies
Nothingness speaks louder than words
Unhappiness flows from white skies
