So bitter, but trees dance
As I walk home in a haste.

The Wind
The WindWhen the winds blows
We wrap up warm
Yet really
We should have just stayed home.
When the wind blows
The leaves rush along.
The cold empty road
As the wind is so strong
When the wind blows
It gusts through tree tops
The leaves do drop
As the cold never stops.
When the wind blows
Animals can go mad
They start to freak out
Act like they are dammed
When the wind blows
It howls, stinging my face
So bitter, but trees dance
As I walk home in a haste.
***
Middle of the Night
At the middle of the night,
I was hugging my pillow tight,
Wondering if things were still right.
Are you still willing to fight?
For our love that was forbidden,
We ought to keep things hidden.
Tell me if our love was enough.
I’m losing my facade of being tough.
Suddenly you became confuse,
Of the love that you’ve declared.
My heart beats fast, I refuse.
It scares me even though I’m prepared.
