While The Cold Winds Do Shake The Windows

Rating: 3.0


While the cold wind does shake the windows
the leaves of the trees do vanish
and it's the last part of summer
while I stand shivering in the bedroom,

and you look
out of the bed's cosiness at me,
give a long yawn
and want to drag me back to your heaven

but duties do call inescapable
and within moments I have got to go to work.
