Snow

the world is fully of icy white goodness,
sparkling in the suns cloudy glow.
falling from the heavens this wonderful snow,
i slip into a nice warm doze.
but nightmares still haunt my dreams,
i cant escape..
the world outside is happy,
and loving.
hotchocolate is warmly welcome.
the snow is white, its cold, its crisp,
reminding us of careless childhood.
but oh darkness still creeps in,
my dreams are not safe.
the snow so bright,
so heavenly welcome.
shedding light into the dark gloomy weather.
my nightmares come.
even during the day.
haunting memories.
i cannot fully enjoy the season.
the snow, that i wish i could run and play in.
is so innocent, naive.
oh how i am taunted, by those nightmares.
oh beautiful white snowy goodness,
wash me free of those terrible memories.
but oh how you cannot.
my comfortable doze,
i awake with a start,
to realize my dreams oh how they are
dark, dark, dark.
a prison in my own mind.
even christmas, the season of giving,
cannot fully touch me.
the snow my be cold, icy, chill.
but inside, the darkness fills me
chills me more still then the coldest of weather.
i cannot escape..
snow
