It is
a nor'easter, and
I watch as
the heavy raindrops fall
and the icy winds
turn them into
snow
before they hit
the ground,
and accumulate
like a hurricane
that they did not wish
to be a part of,
and yet, they're stuck
in a mountain of snow
they did not know
was coming
and had no way
to escape it
so now they are stuck
in a snow bank and
they must wait
until everything
melts
and they must melt
with it
and no one will ever know
they were here
and they did not wish
to be a part
of the storm,
they did  not wish
to be destructive,
they did not wish
to ruin
everyone
else's
day,
they just were

and

they are sorry
for
existing.
