Outside
Standing out here, in the frigid cold night,
without jacket, cold and hungry
I stare at your window, the warmth within
All I ever really wanted, within sight
The heavens open up with pouring cold rain,
yet I stand and stare within.
Your warm safe home, full of love
Yet I stand outside, broken
As I stare at the mesmerizing fireplace
memories rush back like a flood
Of our joy, your sweet laughter
the love we once shared, your gentle kiss.
Sunny days and cloudless skies
Lazy afternoons spent with you.
Drifting away, embracing together,
the happiness I once knew.
Then storms brewed, the end came near
Naive, I laughed my love away
I'll never need you, stay away
Coming glory of a new day
That girl will fade away I thought,
but looking around, relationships crumbled.
Back to point A, nothing new
Cannot find this joy I sought.
So here I stand, so close, so far
The only love I ever knew
How I wish to simply enter and stay,
but the end is near, so I fade away
