Falling leaves in the autumn
As the sun pull’s further away
Leaving this concrete jungle
Cold in this day
The faces of it’s residents
Lifeless stale and hard
No expression, none at all
Leaving could every souls heart
Passing by one another
No warmth or caring there
Each one for himself
Fights to survive in
They call home....

The rays of the sun even colder now
As snow flakes starts to fall
Forcing every soul
To retreat into what they call home
Nothing left to see out there
So hide in solitude
Every one alone will be
For this season, inevitably
No warmth or love
For these lonely souls
They no not where to search
For hiding brings nothing
But loneliness,
And loneliness nothing in turn…..
The sun is breaking through the clouds
Opening doors locked for months
Breathing new life into these hearts
So long frozen alone.
Melting the ice letting water flow
Bringing hope to them all
A new season has come
For the hearts of the lost
To be lifted in spirited joy
Filling their lungs with laughter
As the days grow longer now
Giving them a reason
To believe in love somehow

The summer sun so warm
The fiery furnace in the sky
Warms the concrete jungle
Brings forth life and friendliness
On faces of those who once so cold
Only shadows of lonely times
Locked away with the winter cold
In a closet of memories lost
