The Snow is Falling

The Snow is Falling

A Poem by Obscured by the Shadows

The snow is falling,

you watch and dream.

The future is calling, 

but it's not what it seems.

 

You make a choice,

and follow your heart.

you lose your voice,

and are torn apart.

 

The snow is falling,

you watch and dream.

The future is calling,

but it's not what it seems.

 

You know better now,

and always think first.

You ask yourself how,

you just haven't burst.

 

The snow is falling,

you watch and dream.

The future is calling,

you just want to scream.

Good punch in the end. Also more about decisions and dreams. Whether to follow the heart more or think rationally before taking the next stop. A constant battle between mind and heart. But time doesn't stop so in the end our past mistakes,the dilemma and inability to take the decision causes us to dread the future. ^^ The rhyme scheme as usual is spot on ^^ I like it much Thank you for sharing

The future is on the horizon for all of us. We have to shape it by our present moments.
Good poem.

Awesome poem.
The repetition of the snow falling somehow makes it moee mysterious and dark.
Once again, awesome!! :) :) :)

Ayye :D My pleasure!
It was mentioned in the other reviews, but I loved the way you repeated the verse about snow. It made it seem never ending.

Why thank you, every comment, even a small one, is appreciated :D
As I read what was a rather dream sequenced work, it gave me pause. How often can we look upon the first snowfall and watch and not dream as our minds empty of all but the snow dream. Well done.

Thank you very much. I appreciate your open-mindedness
Great poem. The repetition really helps this piece.
I really enjoyed the second stanza. No one can predict the consequences...

Keep writing, it can only get better!
