Sometimes, it is all too much.
Other times, it is never enough.
Falling short as snowflakes fly
Fighting back tears so they don't
Freeze to my cheeks.
Pondering again what I have to give
When there seems to be so little left inside.
All I want is for someone to love me.
He said one night in a crowded park.
Millions of voices from across the ages echoed his plea.
Every race, age, tongue
From the beginning to the end
Each in anguish, in longing, in desperation
Had the same request.
I remember him as I sit in the same park.
Yes, that is all I want too.
I reach out
But all the snowflakes do is turn my fingers numb
Numb like the truth buried inside.
A small truth, crystallized, constant
Simple and sacred.
How could you give your life for me?
Be born in the cold and die for me
When I am selfish and cold and distant?
The snowflakes kiss my cheeks.
They whisper softly, those tiny messengers
You are loved.
Am I?
Perhaps simply knowing is enough.
