please tell me

little winter poem

Please tell me.
Tell me that the snow covers the trees,
that all the people are in their houses,
eating chocolate and biscuits.
I want to know
if the wood is silent,
if the birds are in their nests
and if the squirrels are sleeping in peace.
Please tell me.
Tell me that the house is not empty,
that I'm not alone in this room,
waiting for tomorrow.
I want to know
if I can trust in you,
if I can hold your hand
and if you will be always here for me.
Please tell me.
Tell me something, dear,
because my eyes are open,
but there's only darkness around me.
