A Snowflake Fading to White

A Snowflake Dawn

Cover up your scars

a woolen hat to warm your heart

mittens for pale hands

a scarf around your longing

Crawling up on the lap of your past

clinging on to a sense of safety

the uncertainty of wanting to love

the constant fading of a glimpse

of light

of life

A scream! -right ahead of you

your mirror blushing

your eyes sparkling

your dreams alive in a haze

of joy

of glory

Your hands reaching out

touching

feeling

knowing

the answer lies within

And your heart aches!

for burning lips

in your neck

on your chest

for an embrace that lasts

And everything dissolves around you

a fading from black to white

to red

to red

too red to see...

But behind the mist you feel

someone thinking of you

the moment you fall asleep

the moment you wake up

the moment you smile

and think "Beauty!" -which is there indeed

And on the ice

the game continues

and in the snow

the cold warms you

and the dream becomes you!

A smiling tear

slowly heading down

caressing your face

meeting your lips in salty fashion

smiling -
you are alive
