Winter

The winter she was waiting for never came...

She wanted to feel the crisps and shivers it would bring

and the feeling of cold and calm

She always imagined how it would sooth her,

how the cold breezes would tickle her ears

She wanted to shrug and she wanted to cuddle

But the winter she was waiting for never came...

The heat burning her skin stayed forever

and she kept blazing with a hope

A hope that someday winter would show up

to stop the cruelty of summer

She wanted to heal and she wanted to be at peace

But the summer never ended and winter never came...

Even when the winter never showed up

she still wanted to feel it at least once

"Here I come to the heaven of winter," she said

"burn my body or bury just once and for all"

She wanted to escape as she'd waited too long

And the winter she was waiting for never came...
