It was created for one purpose To hit where its brothers had landed And stay But as it was drifting Aimlessly down It saw you It saw your smile Heard you laugh Saw the completely original uniqueness of you. An in that moment its heart burst and rapidly regrew With a new purpose in mind. To touch you, So as it drifted down it swayed from its brothers hoping to find you. It wiggled and squirmed and moved all about Until it finally landed On your nose As I hugged your red nose did you hear it? What it whispered to you? I did I heard the soft ‘I love you’ Before its grip on you faded and melted away. The sweet soft suicide of a snowflake It certainly wasn't the first to fall in love with you, And it won't be the last.

Suicide of A snowflake
It was created for one purpose To hit where its brothers had landed And stay But as it was drifting Aimlessly down It saw you It saw your smile Heard you laugh Saw the completely original uniqueness of you. An in that moment its heart burst and rapidly regrew With a new purpose in mind. To touch you, So as it drifted down it swayed from its brothers hoping to find you. It wiggled and squirmed and moved all about Until it finally landed On your nose As I hugged your red nose did you hear it? What it whispered to you? I did I heard the soft ‘I love you’ Before its grip on you faded and melted away. The sweet soft suicide of a snowflake It certainly wasn't the first to fall in love with you, And it won't be the last.
