It's freezing cold
Pretty clouds seeping through my parted lips

Lacing my fingers together

Making it a little prison

'It's too cold today', sighing




To breathe is a chore

And the records have shown

The snow penetrated deep underneath the white earth

It is the sign of my loneliness




As the colds creep into my bones

I have lost my voice

Love, please sing me a lullaby

Let me forget my woes and the dark places

Forgive me for wanting a little bit of peace




Have I made the wrong decisions?

Life has made me so worn out

And I run to the highest mountain

But this world is still freezing cold

very strong draft. you rely on concrete details, you rely on carefully chosen words to give those concrete details meaning that is deeper than the literal meaning, you illustrate the will to live and the frailty of the human condition.





continue developing it.
