betray me
speechless
when i need your voice the most
empty-minded
hollow like a cave
save for the slumbering bear
i need to arise
winter's dead
and now it's gone
spring has sprung
yet you leave me
speechless
when i need your voice the most

dreary cold has dissipated
and warmth
and bright
should fill the orifices of your cave
should tickle the bear
so it roars to life
roar to life
shatter the walls
break through the confines
speak
don't betray me
