Here's Your Explanation

It's so cold, I have no jacket

Making winter's freezing air feel as

comforting as home's warm fireplace

vibrant as a lighthearted day at the beach



I'm so lonely, I crave interaction

The company of anonymous online users seems as

heartfelt as a love letter

familiar as a best friend's embrace



It's so dark, the electricity is out

The light of one small candle would be as

bright as the sun's rays

nurturing as a bonfire on a cold night



I'm so out of control, no grip on the steering wheel

A roller coaster lacking seatbelts seems as

reliable as the trusty family van

stable as a century-old oak



It's so painful, I'm without anesthesia

The blow to knock me out would feel as

soft as the kiss of a butterfly

peaceful as drifting off to sleep
