Winter Nights(Mike Kaupembe) WINTER NIGHTS

By Mike Kaupembe

After the day's final blow
The last song's echo fades to silence
The last tear falls
The final embrace felt
The solitary step into the unknown taken
I'll be not left behind either

Dare not look for me
I'll be long gone
Far away from all this chaotic snare
To pick up the pieces
In the stillness of lonely winter nights
Where memories of perfection
Etched in the blueprint of my soul
Once worn and weary
Will replay as bittersweet melodies
