Winter Wind

Winter Wind
Distant voices carried over snow
Whisper of spring two years past
When felicity blossomed, long ago
And my bliss was unsurpassed

The pale moon, cast high above
Shines no hope amidst this winter chill
Of another spring to return my love
And revive that summer thrill

Fate has blown me to this aching place
Conspired with the wind to cause me pain
To see her eyes upon that gorgeous face
And know my love will always be in vain

Eternal winter lies in my heart
Along with spring, my joy will part
With my love, and lust, my favorite sin
And vanish in the icy, winter wind.
