"This Time of Year"
Amidst a crisp Winter white
slowly falling from the sky
the soft crunch of snow
beneath my feet
always reminds me
that time has gone by,
This time of year always seems
to bring your memory,
A piece of my heart
left with you
when it ended,
Its okay though
I still remember you the way you were
but that was a lifetime ago,
This winter snow however
always blurs the lines of what you were to me,
Feels like watching a movie remembering those memories,
I know that
Somewhere in this winter white
Our past still exists
but only like
a snowflake,
fleeting in its beauty,
existing before our eyes
for mere moments
before
disappearing on the ground
among the million
other flakes of snow,
leaving behind
only
their essence in memory.
Gone to time.
