Poetry: Waiting

Winter Part III

How is it fair that the world moving on while I am trapped here frozen and cold?
It's been winter in my heart, storming in my mind, and I have been lost in the snow.
The winds are howling around me loudly.
My eyes blinded by the brightness of the snow.
I'd forgotten about the sun.
I'd given up on warmth.
I'd come to love the safety of the ice.
So much snow, for so long I didn't care.
There was no point in even trying.
I built my home in the safety of the ice.
I matched everything that was me to grayness and black.
If winter can come, winter can go.
Until it does, I will live with it.
