In lonely times I crave warmth,
so badly, but alas; I am alone

It is that same warmth that I feel when a hug is just a little longer, or when someone says: this reminded me of you

Alas; the cold is everywhere and I cannot fight it on my own

Not even five score years ago,
A man spoke of a sweltering summer, as he pleaded for the invigorating autumn to come.

But it's still warm, and the heat sticks around, festers like a wound in all that was cool before, thick and hot.

But we must keep our heads cool, for autumn will only come if we all stand for it.
