Winter Fall
Oh, how the winter nights fall,
Swiftly and without delay,
She, who sees me, content in all
I smile and she runs away,
Stop I shout, not wanting her to leave
But still she runs, unrelenting in her escape
My feet begin to ache, her pace not easily achieved
Soon she is gone, and I beaten down by fate
Grasping at the scene, her trail now fading
Why must you leave? My soul, it’s heart, now suddenly breaking
Like the snowflakes that fall, gently to the ground
You come and go as if we seem profound,
Such beauty is fleeting, such grace unrelenting
Every touch of pure freezing, is met with a warmth neverending
So to you, my love, my angel, my light
Please return again, and keep me in sight
I crave your affection, your love is so dear
Please don’t make me wait, so long is my year.
