The snow swirls outside my frosty window,
The heat, the fire and the blankets keep me warm,
I am so grateful for all that I have,
Yet I can't help but feel something is missing.

As I sink into the fluffy pillow and the satin sheets,
I wonder if I am possibly being too deep.
But something keeps on tugging at the ends of my tattered heartstrings,
And I know despite all I have I can't help but feel alone.

I'll just scream to myself in the secrecy of my own shadow,
The void pulls my heart in.
I'd give up everything I've ever known to live one of those whirlwind
romances from my books,
No matter how much we tell ourselves we don't need love,
All in all it's what souls run off of.

As I close my eyes and imagine my perfect person,
I wonder and hope if somewhere in the world,
At the same time,
Someone is doing the same thing,
But the image he sees is me.

I know out there there's someone who loves me,
I might not know his name,
He might not know who I am,
He may not know that I exist,
I may not know of him,
But all that matters now is that this lonely snowy night,
I feel his shadow take my arm,
Secure arms to keep me running strong,
Until we meet my heart is safe in the company of the ghost of another.
