Sitting alone
In a cold dark room
Is pain
The brain shrinks
And becomes small
Where to go where to go?
Light shoots forth a single ray
Down into the living room
I can’t breathe I can’t breathe
Curtains draw in display
Of the night of day
Open the curtains
And let the light stream in
It’s warm
And the body tingles
The cold ember heats a little
Just a little
Spread the arms and feel the warmth
Caress the body tenderly
A new breath lights the world away
From this once cold dark room
