What will be 
the distance between us
when the earth slows,
then stops
and finally comes to rest?
You're so so far, 
so far,
so far.

I want to leave at dawn.
I want to cut 
the distance between us.
You're so far,
so far, so far.
If you watch closely,
you can see dark clouds
form overhead.
If you watch closely,
you can see snowflakes
fall upon my shoulder.

One thought on “Slow, the Snow”

1. I honestly love this whole thing for its mystery but also confession.

   This line got me thinking:

   “I want to cut
   the distance between us.” – cause does he want to close the distance between them or make it wider still? I’m enjoying the conundrum.
