who are you?

This song, usually tranquil,

Bounces off of blank walls

Sliding in one ear and out the other

Echoing in the solitude

The once peaceful sounds seem fake and hollow.



The singer speaks of winter, of fading

Every time I see the glory of autumn

The wind furiously snatches the color

and turns the vibrant shades to ice

Stealing all signs of life.



A harsh kind of winter, with blizzards

Images of sharing a warm fire,

a source of life, with you

Have frozen and morphed into

a polaroid nailed to my brain

    of an empty cabin

           in the snow.
