I walk down the snow covered way
Only hearing the snow screech under each stride
I close my eyes and think of what it used to be like….
The flames of the sizzling fire crackling to each kindle thrown on,
I was happy then
Cocoa & cookies always warmed me up
Life was so easy no worry no cares
I can feel the sun blind me while I sled down the hill
Life’s little pleasures were always so sweet….
I open my eyes to reality again
My world now that is masked with a dull light
I sit down and cry for a while,
I take a deep breath
Walking back home my breath puffed before me
Tears steaming off my face as I wipe them away with my mitten
I get inside & retire for the evening
I look out the window my face wet from weeping
Sigh one last time and close the curtain to call it a night
Bye sweet world you are still quite a sight
