Like The Snow

Like The Snow

I am like the snow,
Freshly fallen, quiet and white.
Like the snow,
I quickly fade away.
Like the snow,
I am loved, but I care not.
Like the snow,
I am missed when I am gone.
Like the snow,
I want to be left alone.
Like the snow,
I was once pure and innocent.
Like the snow,
I was quickly dirtied.
Like the snow,
I silently weep for the torment within.
Like the snow,
I am beaten down, lying frozen on the ground,
Willing Spring to come and bring you back to me, my
love.

I came up with the idea for this in the car on the way to
school this morning, while looking at the dirty snow. Of
course, as usually happens, I had no paper then, so it
was much better in my head.
