First snow; smiles; slamming doors.

First Snow. 

a breathless whisper 

of pure white snow 

falling to its death 

on dirty black asphalt 

avoiding my gentle 

yet fatal touch 

and plummeting 

to its bitter end. 

. 

Smiles. 

Smile, smile, smile, 

Hide the tears behind your eyes. 

Smile, smile, smile, 

Hide the truth behind the lies. 

. 

Slamming Doors. 

I didn't know doors could talk, 

But the viciousness with which 

This one slammed 

Says an awful lot. 

.
