THE COLDEST WINTER...

THE COLDEST WINTER...


MOST OF MY DAYS AND NIGHTS ARE SPENT TRYING TO MAKE SENSE, SINCE I LEARNED THAT LOVE HAS MUCH MORE VALUE THAN ORDINARY DOLLARS AND CENTS... I BEEN BLESSED BEYOND ALL OPTICAL MEASURES, KNOWING IN MY HEART OF HEARTS I HOLD THE KEY TO CERTAIN UNFOUND PLEASURES... TRANSCENDING BUT NON PERISHABLE, BRED BY LOYALTY THIS IS NON COMPARABLE... HOW CAN I EXPLAIN THESE EMOTIONS WHEN MY WORDS DON'T SEEM TO OFFER ANY SOUTHERN COMFORT, I AIM WONDROUSLY THROUGH MY OWN MIND THAT MY THOUGHTS ARE LITERALLY OUT NUMBERED... THIS LINE IS LONG AND I BEEN STANDING HERE WAITING FOR A MINUTE, WANTING TO BE RECOGNIZE BUT DOUBT HAS NO TIME FRAME OR LIMITS... MOST OF MY ANGUISH FREEZES BETWEEN MY TEARS AND MY SCREAMS, AND MOST OF MY HAPPINESS IS ONLY RESURRECTED THROUGH MEMORIES PLAYED OUT IN DREAMS... WHY AM I NOT SITTING ON THAT GOLDEN PEDESTAL?? WHY IS MY LOYALTY NOT NURTURED WHEN I'M TOTALLY UNFORGETTABLE?? SAFE HOUSES ARE ONLY BUILT ON SECURITY THAT CAN'T BE BREECHED, AND TIES ARE ONLY BIND BY ACTIONS AND NOT TEMPORARY SPEECH... IT'S SO COLD OUTSIDE BUT SNOW DON'T FALL ON YESTERDAY'S WINTER STORM, ONLY THE WIND CAN ACTUALLY MOVE IT AROUND WHEN IT'S TRYING TO DRIFT ON...
