i stopped and i saw the answers written on the wall
the answers were questions about what i saw
questions worth answering, but only when i thaw
and the frozen parts of my being are all shown to be small

i started and i cried when i saw where i'd slowed
the places from my mind that were only now bestowed
upon my heart as a home, a place for me to own
and i was only a few steps from the road
