Click hereIt is cold outside your door where I stand.
I try to see the warmth through your window,
But there is only an empty fireplace
And ashes where once a fire was aglow.
Did it burn itself out, unattended
By a thoughtless heart who could not care less?
Or did you not want to light it yourself
For winter would be a more welcome guest?
Even though it's summer outside, I want to hug myself
the distant cold feels so close, in my mind that frozen window
would someone dare to take the lonesome matchbox from the shelf
would someone break the ice, bring back heartiness to what now is snow
