The rain pours against my window in the dark
Pitter patter
The tears of those who cannot sleep
They knock persistently
saying ‘’please let me in’’
hold me in your warmth
hide me in the soft white you slumber in
so it can smother the harsh voices which haunt me
Like snow which hides our past trespasses
silences every footstep
blankets our sorrows with its beauty
Make me feel the same as I did when I was a child
and I tasted one of those floating sugar crystals on my tongue
and I felt my soul embers burning brightly
Maybe if you hold me tight enough
I can remember that warmth
and I'll stop bothering you in the night
but I'll dream sweet dreams
where we play together in the snow.
