Looking out at the winter morning,
its just beginning to start.
And making my way to the open fire,
breathing raw just like your heart.
The frosty pines on my windowpane,
hold together this masterpiece.
And yeah I’d have to be forced to agree;
Ultimately this is what lies beneath.
Walking away was for me the hardest part.
Does your soul feel empty too?
I’m glad to hear that your feelings are deep and yeah,
I feel them too.
The crisp white snow under my weary feet,
is as ironic as my wedding day.
Or how about walking on a golden sandy beach,
with nothing but the current to lead your way.
don't be too harsh please. :)

To be honest, when I read some of the comments on your older work I did agree - there were lots of problems. This is far from perfect, but it does show a big improvement in my opinion.
I think that the first verse is quite good. It sets a mood and a scene, which is brought together really well by the last two lines. I like the almost casual wording "And yeah I'd have to be forced to agree"; it suddenly makes the verse more personal, like a conversation.
I also like the first four lines of the second verse, for similar reasons. However... I really don't like the last four lines. They seem like you're desparately trying to pull what you can out of the whole 'weather' image. And I don't see how snow can be ironic, unless that itself is on some whole other level of irony :P
In general, it could still do with some sharpening up on the vocab - try thinking of alternatives to "looking out" and "your feelings are deep". But nevertheless, I like it as a song/poem/whatever you intended - so well done.

Its good, not the best, but like a 7.2/10
I typical think starting a line with the word "and" is asking for trouble, especially if followed by the word "yeah"
but you made it work.
