That Cold Winter Day
I think back on how it all began
I woke up that day and my future ran
Right past my eyes that used to see
Right past the person that used to be
I try and be strong even though I am now weak
I try and see clearly even though I am now blind
I hope my future hold some good
Even though my hands can’t hold anything
I try and think positive but I can barely think anymore
I then try and remember of how life had been
This is too hard for me; my memory just seems to end
Then I look into his eyes, which are more serious than they used to be
I struggle to go for him and for me
It is a battle everyday of my life
As I try to be a good mother and wife
Through the tears and the pain
I can still hear the rain….
It rained that day, I can honestly say
I remember all the details of that cold winter
day.
