Snow

I wrote this poem a couple yrs ago, but it remains one of my most creative pieces

I went outside, to be a lone

After awhile it began to snow,I looked up into the night sky, saw nothing but darkness

I looked away from the sky, closed my eyes

I felt a drop of coldness on my nose

When I opened my eyes, I saw snow

Looked up at the sky once again and saw nothing but dark clouds

I rubbed my eyes and went inside.

 

I asked everyone if they had seen snow, they all said "no"

I shook my head and went to my room

I couldn't stop thinking about the snow, I only saw

I tried falling asleep to get it out of my mind

When I shut my eyes, I saw snow.

 

I opened my eyes and saw my plain old room

When I looked closer, I saw bits of whiteness falling from my ceiling

I called my sister to my room

She saw nothing out of the ordinary

She left the room, in confusion

 

Everytime I blinked I did not see darkness, I saw light.

I thought I was just cold and tired

So, I curled up on my bed under tons of blankets.

I closed my eyes to fall asleep

I was looking forward to my dreams

I did not get what I wanted

Snow is all that I saw, in my mind's eye

I kept my eyes shut anyways.

 

All I saw was a brightness, from the snow

When I tried to open my eyes, they kept shut

I tried to force them open with my hands and still they would not open

Suddenly I felt a cold, calm feeling take over my body

Even though I could not really open my eyes, I looked up and saw snow.

 

The snow was coming down hard now. It was like a hard pounding on my body, yet I just laid there

Laying in the snow, no one could see

Feeling the snow, no one else could feel

I felt the snow enveloping me and all I did was watch it fall upon me.

What I saw, only I could see

The snow completely covered me

I never did open my eyes again.
