Winter

cloudy days and rainy nights
naked trees surrounded by colorless vegetation
frigidaire making breath visible like a smoker in a lounge
darkness is what I see as the winter days close in

so sad, so gloomy and down
cold drafty air lingering as the days slowly pass by
it hurts to move as the painful depression sucks out the life once lived 
darkness is what I see as the winter days close in
