Winter

I remember when the snow fell light

And it landed on the ground

This rarely happened in my neighborhood

So I was happy and I smiled

I remember when that snow turned to hail

And then feel upon my face

It wasn’t as soft as the snow was

But I was still happy it came

I remember when that hail turned to hail stones

And I finally had to run for cover

I watched in amazement while in my house

Because I had never seen this before

Soon the snow came harder

And the stones continued to fall

I watched myself get blocked in

And I no longer could do anything at all

I remember when he said he loved me

I was happy and I smiled

And I remember when he cheated

But he came back

And I was happy he came, so I smiled

But now it is just a storm

And I have tried to run but cannot hide

I can be honest with him and tell him how I feel

But it seems like he doesn’t get it inside

Why would someone want something

That they decided to throw away

Why would someone hold on to something

In hopes of having it one day

Why say you love someone

When you look in their face and constantly lie

And why shed a single tear

When I tell you I am tired of trying. 

I remembered when it snowed that day.

I remember how I felt.

I was in love and I was blinded by some petty things

I was blinded by how I felt

When it began to hail I still watched in amazement

Because I wanted to believe it couldn’t be that bad

And when the hail stones started to drop

I ran for cover but I still was there

I eventually became trapped, and I was alone

And I was hiding from the truth

And we all know the truth can open scary doors

It opened the door to the real you

As time went on my heart grew cold

And I could say this is because of you

But now I treat you,

How you always treated me

And now you tell me you feel used

And now you show emotion

But my heart is cold and your tears don’t faze me

For now I am frozen

And you are a distant memory

I run into you time from time

And you are but a stranger to me

You give me a hug

 you buy a gift

But it doesn’t mean anything to me

You call me and I pick up

And you just hear me breathe on the phone

You want me to show an ounce of feeling

But I packed those up long ago

But the moral of the story is

Don’t take advantage of a real love

Cause if a woman really loves you

She loves with her heart and soul

And yeah they say the first wound

Is always the one that cuts deep

But never throw away something

That you always thought you would keep

Because women get fed up at times

And yes, they do move on

But when a woman loses all emotion for you

You basically do not exist in her world

So treat your women right

And hold on to what you got

Cause a woman can only take so much

Until she decides to shut you completely out
