As I walk through  fallen and scarcely trodden snow

My heart as heavy as my weary footsteps
Keeps company with resilient leaves and broken branches

I miss you and today I feel the steady pull of your love

Just as this winter moon stirs the sleeping bear
It stirs up in me a longing for you


The need for your physical presence
Rises up within me like the tide
With no place to fall except from my eyes

And even though you'd be the first to hush my curse

I **** mortality and I **** the fates
And I envy the other side of Heaven's gates

*For there you are ... there you are
