Winding roads Iced over Naked bones Tip over in the breeze Every drop of snow I Remember I’m just a hollow shell.

It’s winter again The cold has rolled in The frost has started and The ice took my heart again. I am frozen I am cold I can’t feel I don’t see the point any more. The snow is sticking now It twinkles like fallen stars But it melts at your touch Because it was emptyContinue reading “I am Winter”
