Blizzard
The blizzard out my window
Mirrors what is inside
A snowfall of ideas
With no place to reside
What should I say?
What should I do?
To show I have no clue,
How to live without you
These rhymes are too easy
The ideas too cliché
To invoke the sorrow
Put it on display
Just writing a love poem,
Is too much like a movie
My grief is mocked,
By images on my TV
This is me. This is unique.
It will never happen again
Never will this world
Witness the same man
The blizzard in my head
Mirrors what is outside
A flurry of emotions
Blanketed miles wide
Rage, love and confusion,
Pave the streets white
My eyes must be failing,
It looks dark as night
Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock,
Time is unraveling
I sit here alone
I should be traveling
I need to go home,
Be with my family
But this is real life,
Not a fantasy
Life has no rhyme scheme.
No romantic conclusion
With a last poignant gasp,
While you clutch their cold hands,
It just ends.
