Winter in my heart...

I try to be positive and a little humorous around people, but sometimes it feels like swimming against the tide... I try to look happy and cheerful around people, but sometimes the heart feels cold and lonely... Sometimes I think I need to think more positively about things. Maybe I am at a stage that I have to accept and face my problems and move on with things... But it is easier said than done. What is gone cannot be found again... What is empty, cannot be replaced again... When will the sun shine in my heart again???

Here's a winter in my heart
It's cold, lonely and bare
No matter what I try to plant
Nothing ever grows there
Fertilizers are of no use
The green grass is dead and gone
There are no bees buzzing
And no birds singing songs
There's a winter in my heart
A place where love once resided
Love ran away with the spring
After feeling unwanted and chided
Love has found its place
Among the blossoming trees
Never wanting to return
To my frozen, lifeless leaves
There's a winter in my heart
I await the season's change
to melt away the ice and snow
and with it, take the pain
