snowy fate

another poem. reminds me of 'into the wild'

Trekking through the blistering cold,
Remembering warm times of old,
Green grass fields and pretty flowers,
Is what I see in final hours

Searching through this sea of white
Vision black, I see the light!
What a foolish trek I made
For this journey, life I trade

Strength does rise, deep inside
From the pain I will not hide
Frostbitten fingers cling to life
Overcome this saddened strife

Defeat the wilds is what I must,
Do to make this journey just
But still my bones and body weary,
My thoughts turn, dark and dreary

If I was not a foolish boy,
I would not be nature's toy
Would lead a long and happy life,
But now it ends, on cold dark night...
