Frozen Frozen to the bone Burn all that's around to survive A freeze that shouldn't of shut us down Frozen darkness Hours on end Freezing cold Freezing cold Tapping a person's soul Searching for strength Hours upon hours Digging for courage Freezing in the dark Electricity, water, food, everything of need evaporates Never knowning when relief will arrive Despair grows Deepens into memories of tomorrow Cold, brittle bones break into Pilling up, alongside the ill planning of others, who, beyond the shallow halls watch from afar While families toss childhood dreams into the flames to melt away the ice The loss is immeasurable The cost is astronomical Frozen
