Frozen

The ice burns my skin,
but it's my heart that is cold,
inside I am hollow,
or so I am told.

What can I do?
but continue to walk,
facing this storm,
that so mirrors my thoughts.

My mind begins to reel,
thinking of you,
I know I should keep walking,
my worlds come unglued.

It's too late to go back,
the damage is done,
the odds have stacked against me,
all I can do is run.

But something soon stops me,
I stand in the snow,
watching it fall,
steady and slow.

The Sky's begin to clear,
the moon is overhead,
I can see a star,
I want to go back to you,
but I think I've gone too far.

I'm not one to runaway,
I'll face the storm ahead,
terrified beyond belief,
that my hearts already dead.

All I do is hurt you,
and I don't feel a thing.
until again I'm with you,
them my heart begins to sting.

Maybe I'm not hollow,
maybe I'm not cold,
I think that what they say is wrong,
my soul has not been sold.

My heart begins to thaw,
because even though it's pain,
it's strong and I can feel it,
washing over me like rain.
I refuse to quit.

I'll fight the world,
and make it through,
surpassing the odds,
and back to you.

I'll fix my world,
and mend your heart,
it's time to bury my past,
we deserve a new start.
