Snowy Suicide

Soft cool sheets of snow the clouds laid out for me

The only colors around settle in my skin and evergreens 

I could melt a hole in the earth to it’s core 

And the birds left me behind to rot till I\'m raw 

 

I\'ll wait in salty snow drenched in my cardinal excess 

Until my sunken face fills, till my carcass feels sprouts caress 

The earth claws and gnaws, I want it to 

I plunge into terror, I just don\'t know what to do

 

Snow is too cold too strident 

I want to dive in, drown in it 

It won\'t let me, my body caked in grime 

My body flinches and shakes every time, every time
