Overtaking winter while running south

Overtaking winter while running south,
Firing up the sunrise with flames of words.
If you want I'll sing you this song aloud;
Give me just a spark, I am getting cold.

This is all we have after all those years:
Some residual kindness between the lines.
I am heading south after you, my dear,
With your salty poems and spicy rhymes.

And my Lord is pricking my shabby heart,
With a golden quill he is writing so:
Certain things are destined to fall apart,
Let her go already,
Just let her go.
