Oh Winter!

Rain!  Oh the rain!  It
Seems you are quite taken with
Me, But why oh why
Can't you let me be?

Grey!  Oh the grey!
It seems you are quite taken with
This day, the sky forest floor
And every face.  But grey!
Enough I say!  But grey
You say more, more more!

Ice!  Clinging to my face and
Biting your toes,
Nipping your ears and
And cutting your strides short. And ice!
But ice!  You won't take me
Down with you, cold I am
But deftly stepped too.

Not One

Have I forgotten
The sting of
Your love? My heart's
Sadness
No longer
Intensifies
Or heightens
But lessens

Have I let you Go?
Heart to be
Taken with the
Wind and
Tainted sky
Flown away, gone.
No one knows
Not one.

I've Been Waiting

You told me you'd come
But I've been waiting
For oh so long--
But I've been waiting for oh so long
You told me I wasn't going to be alone
Because that's what I am
Lost in the world without a hand to hold
Or a God to call upon as I was told
To whom I belong. 

I've been waiting for
For a life time
For a promise
For you my friend
But you never came
In my hurt and pain
As if to you
My life to you
Is just some game.
