A Viewfinder into The Past

Frosted Verse

The ice crevasse splits into a million pieces,

as snow gently falls into the deep abyss,

melting away, the effects slowly fade,

until they reach the sunlit surface, sparkling white.

---

The dark veil draws near and then lifts,

as the first snow petals grace its surface.

Silence surrounds me wherever I tread,

a subtle whisper of a secret passing by.

---

In its white attire, a snow watch

offers all that I require;

a gentle warmth from its breath,

and a guiding light held in gloved hands.

---

The harsh grasp of winter takes hold,

squeezing my crackling bones and muscles,

leaving a chilly lace upon my face,

false warmth, blunt and motionless.

---

I wave my hand, causing the frost to shake

as it sprinkles down like icing from the cake.

Memories of distant lands arise,

bringing forth a mix of emotions, solid and cold.

---

The paths, once filled with grief,

are now inconsolable and forgotten.

The snowy landscape mood has enveloped them,

causing it all to disappear.

---

Everything vanishes and resurfaces

in a new, powerful form,

fashioned from years drenched in tears

and buried emotions, hard to comfort.

---

Thank you for reading!
