The Blizzard
There is no light at the end of the tunnel,
There is no saving grace,
There is not a soul who could save me
From this dark cold lonely place.
I am no one worth crying for
So don't waste your time,
I am no one worth dying for
But for you, I'd stop my heart on a dime.
So I sit in this empty field
Watching you, and only you--
That heavenly smile on your face
As you laugh in that way you do.
I sit in this empty field
Knowing I'm as invisible as can be,
And knowing that an angel like you
Could never love someone like me.
How I long to be rid of the heartache and pain
Of knowing I don't stand a chance,
How I long to be out of your presence
Which puts me in such a trance.
Now snow is falling heavily,
A blizzard is coming, no doubt
With fresh, bleeding wounds on my arms
I uncaringly set out.
I don't know where I'm going
But it's so very far from there
And whether I die out here or not
I'm sure not a soul would care.
The pain is now unbearable
My body has now gone numb,
Tears staining my face I collapse,
Throat too sore to even hum.
I stare at the sky as I lie in the snow
Which has been tainted red with my blood,
My mind is filled with thoughts of you,
Tears flowing like a flood.
But footsteps draw me from these thoughts
And I turn my head to see
The object of my affection
Slowly making his way towards me.
He looks to the sky, then lies down
I'm shocked to see our fingers lace,
He then smiles that heavenly smile
And pulls me into a warm embrace.
His head resting on mine,
He softly speaks to me--
"If this is your decision,
Then we will go--in unity."
For a moment our lips meet,
But it ended all too soon,
And in the dead of night there echoed
The exchanging of these last words:
"I love you."
