noone

wish i was out in the snow with the one

walking, giggling having fun

instead i walk with a vacant space

noone to look into my eyes, touch my face

noones nose to brush off the snow

to share the winters radiant glow

off i trudge into the storm

noones arms to keep  me warm

  1. Please. You have more than established your baseline predicament. How about not always tying the gloom and doom to things that can make you happy...even if it is only a temporary state. If we all could be happy about something for  five minutes a day we would all be way ahead of where we are normally. Happiness is a punctuation mark in the human experience not a constant state. If I can be happy about something, anything for a few moments a day then I have succeded. It is the moments not the hours that make us feel good never mind the days and the years.

    ie.

    I am out in the snow and bundled for fun
    walking and giggling and freezing my buns
    I take the cold as well as the heat
    It's just too bad it's freezing my feet
    --------------------------------------------
    The fun in the sun I always enjoy
    can not do what these snowflakes can do
    I can play and replay with these magical toys
    amazing the fun of what I can do
    I can make snowballs to toss at the boys
    I can make a snow angle and wish it to you
