As It Melts

The softly dropping snow falls under the night sky,

with pure powerlessness fluttering in the taciturn wind.

Freely we fly. Hopeless is not nearly pleasing,

Do not bother wasting cherished energy.

Strange guardian, with a longing to hold on,

Let the infringement better holster our bond.

It's coming down, we're going down,

The cold has patiently waited for our demise.

It's coming on down, we're desperately making an escape,

Down it comes, against the rise.

Miracles disguised in misery,

Hope covered in white sheets,

As it melts, life takes forgetful breaths,

Here again we wreak of Love's first steps.

Politely you ask, neglectfully I respond,

with the song that carelessly replays our regrets.

Imaginary, undermining, it's ours to reach for,

Let's not open it up to anything more.
