The frigid winds of the night,
Graze my tender skin,
Sending shivers throughout,
Sensations begin to numb

Hopeless and alone,
In the deep of dusk,
A faint light shines,
In the midst of the darkness.

A lone fire, burning bright
Giving warmth and shelter,
From the evening's coldness
Numb and aching,

The glowing flame lulls me to sleep
As I began to close my eyes,
Knowing that even if it's just for the night,
Things will be alright.
