I'm sickened
By those bone chilling days
Needing escape
In so many ways.
The insanity, misery, and pain
The countless trips down memory lane.
I shiver violently
Like someone has stepped on my grave
Realizing this life
Is byond beying saved.
For six days the sun has not shined
And the dreariness tortures my mind.
Closing in
By these infinite killing walls
I scream for help
But no one hears my calls.
Blood begins to spill from my ears
Bringing to truth all of my fears.
Looking back
I can forever see your face
Since that goodbye
I have felt my misery displaced.
Life leaves me through splitting veins
Silence produces such a deafening strain.
Old man winter
Laughs as he spreads his disease
When all we want
Is to feel the warmth of summer's release.
Taken from me is my innocense
Trapped by my imagination's prison fence.
Beating me down
Just let me lay down and die
From the wrath
Of this eveil winter sky.

Wow.. you've captured winter's dismal presence so clearly, here. I usually love the winter, but this has truly chilled me. I love it...(I think).

Winter time gives me the same feeling as if a love was gone....cold..dreary...and the days seem so long  
Your a great inspiration, i admire your writing*S*

Is it a metaphore...or is it Seasonal Affective Disorder Syndrome (SADS)?  It appears to allow each reader to pick that which best suits him/her.  Well done Jeremy.  Hardrock
