Your soft white depths

Beckon to me,

Your down covered boughs

Whisper to me,

Your untouched paths

Lead me,



Deep into your cold heart.



Hidden in your picturesque solitude

I find refuge in your sanctitude.

I wish to find

You, defined

But all I find is your frozen heart

And time is too short

As the light grows dim,

As the sun sinks to the rim,

I must leave your soft embrace

And wait in the grace

Of knowing,



I will see you again.
