THE SNOW

the snow kept coming
crushing everything
pushing me down
and down again

brought eveyrthing to a halt
my life on pause
or rewind
i dont even know

it was a barren land
a single lightbulb
it was a dancefloor with no one on it
it was a guitar collecting dust

then it stopped
traffic moved
i could feel again
my toes wriggled

birds came to play
my heart felt full
i had the courage to ask
and she said yes
