Winter Loss

As the winter season approaches
And cold storms gather in the distance
When blistering winds chill you
I’ll be here to warm you

As you go outside to brave the storm
And your body aches from the cold
When you just don’t think you can make it
I’ll be here to protect you

As we go our separate ways
And you decide to face the world alone
When times get hard and worry appears
I’ll be your friend to lean on

As time passes us by
And life bears down on you
When it feels like the weight of the world is yours
I’ll be here to lift you up

As our hearts are pulled apart
And you realize where you want to be
When it could be that place isn’t with me
I’ll be here to support and miss you

As I sit here without you
And the feeling of loss begins to take hold
When the pressure is unbearable
I’ll let you live your life
