Sleeping Under Snowflakes

Sleeping Under Snowflakes

A Poem by Aehr

 

Sleeping under snowflakes, white

Watching migrating birds take flight

Trying to get over that never ending fight,

Of me with myself �" nothing’s alright

 

Now my hair is damp with the dew of spring

Just watching the little chirpy birds sing

And reassuring myself about almost everything

Swallowing my bitter tears back in

 

Now that summer’s here, so is that feeling

Watching the open wound, almost healing

Trying to understand the heart with which I’m dealing

My own one, the broken one that I’m now seeing

 

And now, I’m walking in the down the lane

Feelings wet in the puddles of rain

Trying to avoid and forget the stinging pain

Trying to understand myself, how insane

 

Autumn’s here now, and so are the golden leaves

Looking for myself amongst the maple trees

Lost with the fragrance on the swirling breeze

Drowning into the colours with ease

 

Sleeping under snowflakes, the cloudy sky

And now I just can’t help but cry

Watching the migrating birds fly

I lost the real me, living in a lie

"Trying to get over that never ending fight,
Of me with myself " nothing’s alright"

~I like the flow and how it was written. Even if you can't name the reason why you wrote this. I know there is something that lies underneath it. If you read it gain, I'm sure you'll know what it really means.

I appreciate the poem.

100/100 and shipped to the library~
