Snowfall

beary1112

I'd rather be a sensitive special snowflake

Fragile and broken,

Shattering at the slightest pressure,

Melting at the slightest heat,

 

Than a furious flame,

Condemning everything in my path to

Destruction and death until

Nobody is left.

 

There's a lake that I so admire,

Pristine and blue,

Innocent and beautiful.

I've never seen you myself,

But I hope one day to reach you.

 

As the seasons change

And the waters cycle,

I wouldn't burn through a forest

Just to find you.

I'd rather pain a million winters

For a chance to fall on you.

    This is a clever euphemism and quite well crafted. Very much enjoyed.
