Heart Fire

the snow is cold and falling.                                                                                                
I am just the same.

there is no heat, there is nothing to warm with.
the fire that was sizzling                                                                                                       
is not  burning anymore.

is this just the beginning of a long frigid winter
is this the end of a summer love
a love that has turned with the seasons.

shall i seek shelter elsewhere
shall i draw up into myself and wait out this storm

i fear that there is not enough heat within me                                                                   
to last through this whole winter.

perhaps i can find again                                                                                                     
a little something 
to kindle me through december.
