Snow Will Follow

Snow drifting and melting into a waterfall

Snow Will Follow

Does a snow flake flow upstream at midnight

With a mountain waterfall so vertically up

Is the moon blotted out by storm clouds mounting

While some insignificant ice thing melts

On such evenings as this where shadows thrive

Given the lack of light and evidence given

Who is to say what is or isn’t

What gives credence to a crystalline

Frozen then gone in an instance

Snow blends in, transforms the darkness

Merges with so many droplets at a cost

Flowing soft but hard against the rocks

Where tears hide by muffled sounds inside

Waterfalls crash but never cry

Is this how life and love begins

Forming midnight on a mission

While another snow flake falls

Goes missing with the others lost
