I AM COLD

James Knight 1995 (South Africa)

I Am Cold,
I Travel At Night,
at The Going Down
Of Sunlight.
I Swiftly Decend,
Creeping Through
Any Open Window,
Crack And Door.
The Vast Fields,
Are My Abode,

As I Trek Through
The Land, I Send
My Friends,
Dew, Fog And Wind.
Together We Rule
A Short While.
I Am Cold.

Can You Feel
As I Touch You By The Hand,
Or The Face.
I Course Through You
Until You Can See Me.
I Am Cold...

Can you feel me
I Am Cold
