Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

What do you do when you are cold

You find warmth wherever it may be 

A blanket 

Someone's arms 

Or the fire you started 

When the sun doesn't hold you

like it should 

You take 

You take the heat of strangers

and call it love 

But the moon tells you the truth 

The cold unwavering truth 

That the love isn't found in those

dark alley ways 

But then where?

Still the truth leaves you shivering 

and alone 

So when it does inevitably become

night 

You go in search of that warmth 

once again 

You find anyone willing to share 

their body 

Laying still beside this man 

you hold him 

Believing he can keep you warm 

and maybe unthaw apart of you 

that you've been missing 

But of course you already know 

that is a beautiful lie 

As your lips turn blue

and your face becomes pale 

This man will find warmth somewhere else 

And you my girl 

You will freeze
