When winter finally hibernates
And the thaw is in the air
Life and death collaborates
Exposing all its snares
Given to the hands of fate
Our luck and unawares
The hands of time will suffocate
Those found waiting unprepared
Left hidden in the dark-lands
Those things daylight will not see
Frozen, immovable hands
With no way to set you free
Memories of a memory
In slow motion, on re-wind
Ghosts reflecting what they see
In the shadows of my mind
Delayed hesitation
as the seed splits through the ground
Relieving desperation
with the bounty it has found
Spring renews a frozen promise
bringing a hope to spread around
New seasons to remind us
that life and death have marked the ground
