Snowfall

I hope you find my soul shining

Like I see yours.

Glowing with life and laughter

A mere smile lights up the floor.

Do you know how beautiful you are?

Like snow falling slowly

On my knitted wrapped hand.

While cold wind makes my face red

And joy fills my heart.

I wish you could see from my eyes

How I see you.

Like wishes and dreams come true

Your sunlight peaks through the storm.

A pit-a-pat staccato of sighs

And you melt the darkness inside.

You’re a wonder you know.

Come a little closer and make me

Warmer.

I pray we’ll always be like this

Cold outside but warm beneath.

No one sees you like this

But me.

You’re a treasure hidden, deep.

People cannot see the light I see within.

How blind must they be

To walk past a daring soul like yours.

Lean a little closer, let your heartbeat beat

Next to mine.

I declare I’ll hold your hands until grey

Becomes our main color.

What a lovely sight we’ll be.

Stoop, dried, slow and half out of our minds

But still laughing side by side

Forever trapped in our island of fun.

Trapped in by the snowstorm which shaped

The rest of our lives.

Fire. Let me stir up the fire.

That it may burn, till the ashes follow the wind.
