A Place So Cold

They say the world is a place so cold

there are difficulties even at life's threshold

they say people are filled with hate

to compete with one another is our fate

but what about the warm glow

that from people's hearts does flow

what about the curious eyes

that look up at dawn's skies

what about the bond unbreakable

that even through decades holds stable

what about the love so deep

who's benefits throughout life we reap

what about the hand we hold,

the one to whom our soul is sold.
