  1. Who will you reach for?

     

    The nights are lengthening

    the darkness looms

    Who will you reach for?

     

    The wind is howling

    The cold freezes

    Who will you reach for?

     

    The rain is falling

    The water soaks

    Who will you reach for?

     

    The fires won’t start

    The wood is wet

    Who will you reach for?

     

    Life is fading

    Death hovers near

    Who will you reach for?

     

    The year is ending

    We’re far from the sun

    Who will you reach for?

     

    Tears freeze on cheeks

    Loneliness saps

    Who will you reach for?

  2. Longing for your return

     

    The day after you left

    I ironed my scarf,

    elegant creases have become

    dishevelled wrinkles

    And all I have

    is this longing for your return.

     

    The day after you left

    I approached my mirror,

    Side longs glances have become

    forlorn stares

    And all I have

    is this longing for your return.

     

    The day after you left

    I removed my ornaments,

    Sparkling gems

    have become dull rocks

    And all I have

    Is this longing for your return.

     

    The day after you left

    I called your name,

    Delighted whispers have become

    Wails of despair

    And all I have

    Is this longing for your return.

     

     

    The night after you left

    I slept awhile

    Priceless dreams

    have become worthless life

    And all I have

    Is this longing for your return.
