In the dark stealthy night

Quieter than a whispered breeze

Snowflakes dance upon my heart

Enjoying their midnight soirees

Every teardrop crystallized

Each pain soothed to white

Raw spots dusted with beauty

Dark moments turned to light

In the dawn of new day

The virgin blanket untouched

Waits for my trailing breath to draw

Hopeful furrows of mirth
