Winter Memories

Stay with me summer. I cannot face the winter mist.
Reminding me of when we met and I could not resist.
Keep shining sun, I cannot stand the winter snow
Reminding me of how I saw love grow.
Stay with me blue sky and cheer my weakening soul
Winter seems to brag, about the love she stole.
When I feel the chill air, I always hear the crash
And see the twisted wreckage, and the blinding flash
The car all smouldering amidst the bloodstained snow
Stay with me summer, I die each time you go.
