It's a cold, unforgiving world.

It's a cold, unforgiving world.
Don't doubt it, it's true,
'Cuz as soon as you take off the covers,
Your fingers will turn numb, your toes, blue.

It's a cold unforgiving world.
You can't even go to the loo,
Whenever you stand up you feel it,
The cold is getting to you.

It's a cold unforgiving world.
Out of the covers, the temperature feels negative two,
You can't take it, but you can fake it,
I know you feel it too.

It's a cold, unforgiving world.

Nice message woven into the poem. The rhythm and rhyming are perfect. :)

one thing: When one verse says: "You can't even go to the loo," I think you should cut out the "to" bit. It's not good grammar, but I think it just will help the rhythm. :D Job well done.

It seems as if your poems have a tendency to display a great and true message. That's really great.

I really feel this sometimes, and you put it to words well. I especially like first and last stanzas because it's true! :) Good job!

Nice poem Danny! So true!
