Just when I thought I was finally moving

Just when I thought I would be able to brave the storm

A small thought entered me, making me pause

They say don't ever turn around and look back

But as I turn to see how far I have gone,

I realized I haven't been moving more than a step

Again like all the times before I tried

To push pass the darkness in my heart

The weight on my shoulders

The clouds hanging on my head

I could pretend that I was okay and put on a brave smile

But after all the battle, at night when it's quiet

I sat by my bed and looked down on the invisible bruises

And slowly the tears starts falling drop by drop

I tried to keep up as people move forward

Another season comes by

I see children laughing and smiling

Winter has come and the snow is pilling, a source of joy

Christmas will be here, the gift under the tree and the kisses under the mistleto

I wonder will I have that?

It is warm around me, with all the joy of the season

But the cold inside my heart continues to hammer

I am a small person drowning in this vast world

I tried to swim, I tried to run, I tried to fight

But with each second, it gets tiring

And I am desperate for a hand, a finger maybe

To help pull me through this storm

He doesn't have to be the hero, just a friend I could lean on

When the cold becomes to much that no amount of layers

Could be enough to provide me with warmth.
