Perception of Winter

Goodbye winter 

I look around me to see naked trees and unhappy fields 
Unhappy faces for that matter, everyone rushing to get into the warmth
Because no one can fathom what the winter time yields 
Although, you could say that about life in general..

Social lives are drowning in woe and sorrow
The weather sheds no light on this, if any.. 
You're forever hearing "it's supposed to rain tomorrow" 
And that's that, plans cancelled, were sitting in our thoughts, worrying too much 

The streets are bare, dull in colour 
Clouds hang over us like bad dreams, no escape 
At my feet lay last years life. Forgotten and crushed 
The sound of crumbling, everywhere that I trape 

I look around me and I see naked trees and unhappy fields 
Unhappy faces for that matter, and I'm just as miserable.
Because winters brings nothing but hope for the summer and 
And I'm sure that next year, i'll be just as cynical.
