It starts off pretty shallow but goes on to be very deep. It’s based off of something that I really went through.

It’s snowing really hard outside
And I’m like dang
Got no hot chocolate
To sip on soothing my throat
Or a chocolate hottie
To snuggle up with
Under a big bed spread
Watching a movie
To pass the time

Oh well
I’m thankful for what I have
But I like to share
If it were you and me
Things would be twice as nice
So tired of I and me
But if we could be
Body heat would rise
Like hot cocoa
And you’d never need to worry
About being to cold
When the snow falls.

I went out in the snow cove
To see if I could find her
Walking and waiting
In what I saw as a winter wonderland
Chest held high as I refused to shiver
I’m so ready to see her
I’ll meet her and she’ll welcome me inside
And take care of my frost bite
I’ll tell her how I feel
And she’ll receive my heart in words
She’ll be kind and kiss my face
Hugging me telling me how she feels

When I found out that I would find nothing
My thinking changed and my heart become uneasy
A snow cove is not a winter wonderland
Doubting the life I have
And if I stayed out there any longer
I wouldn’t have any life at all
So I came back home
Slipped as I took my first step in
For the ice immediately melted off of me

It gets boring and lonely sometimes
But I like where I am
Soon where I am will be a better place
And soon after that
A better place is where I’ll be
Right now you can’t see me in this blizzard
But when it passes you won’t even recognize me

    It does get pretty deep in the end…
