Winters Love

Winters love

When I feel the ice-cold touch of winter call
The thoughts of the summer seeming so far away
That's when the touch of sadness and loss fills me
Just need someone to be there and let me feel loved

Waking to another day and wanting something new for me
Lost in this world as I fight the urge to run and hide
To find the courage and seek out that person for me
A hand to hold in mine and fill the world around me with joy again

I am of being the one to wear the painted-on smile
That facade to let people think everything is just fine
Covering the cracks in the walls I have built to not let anyone see
To be struck by the embrace of winter love

I want to find that love that I can offer and get back in return
I never want to drop to my knees and cry out for sympathy
Everything I can give is yours and all I ask of you
To return that love to me, give it back to me, show me what I need
