My feet are always cold. My heart as pure as gold My face a pleasure to behold I was very often told. Then I started to grow old. My feet remained cold My heart harden like gold My face, my eyes Grey and sad, Because of the difficult years I've had. With isolation I am now glad, For company annoys me and I then become infuriatingly mad. The one I thought I loved Depresses me and causes me Pain. Now I have a hole in my soul, A dream of going back to the place Where nothing I had, but to me That's a lot better than anywhere I've ever lived or anyone I could never love, all because of defeat. « return. |
