Snow...Freeze Me

The snow falls down,

Something rare for our hometown

I’m loving it’s timing

The symbol it has for me

Freezing over the pain,

The “funk” I hadn’t been able to shake off

Melting away how heated I have felt,

The burn deep down

It’s comfort

And peace…

Not sure what it means for me, but I’m smiling…

Hoping for things to look up from here…

Hoping for others to see the real me,

To appreciate,

The snow

The cold

The ice

So delicate,

Fragile….

Just like a new beginning,

Don’t rush

Take it slow

Enjoy the beauty of change,

The beauty of starting fresh…

One day at a time

Just live

Be the best you can,

Be what you want others to see

I want you to see me

For me

Not for the past,

Nor for the life I’m caught in

The me that expresses through these words,

These words of desperation,

My last attempt on this page…

I want to runaway, but the snow, the slow pace today slows me down, rewinds for me

reminds me to not wish for what I’m not ready for

not to fast forward through my favorite part

Be careful

All that came with freedom from you,

Was more thoughts about you,

Was being held back even more by you… but in the way I should’ve yearned for from the start…

I’m young,

I was hurt,

Scared…

Fear should be a challenge to keep going,

Not an excuse to give up

I’m sorry for not knowing soon enough

This snow

The blanket covering my pain, freezing my sadness…

I’m ready now….

I hope you are too…

Believe me

Believe IN me…

See me
