No warmth, even from those who are

Supposed to serve as scarves, gloves, hats.

I've never experienced a winter this bad

And I have to wonder;

Well, I'm feeling so hot, I mean cold.

It's like I even have a brain freeze.

Can't even cry out for help

Cuz it's all me.

Didn't see things for what they were and just

Right into a pool that I could not see

The bottom.

Thought I could have it all planned out,

Guess I'm not even wearing the proper

Coat.

I wish the frostbite would just numb me

So I could plow through this winter

The coldest winter ever.

Knee deep in snow

And rained upon by dark clouds

Of sleeting rain.

I've never felt so cold...
