there were four of us pointing at the night sky snowflakes falling like white feathers illuminated by the moon's gleam we thought they were the tears of the stars beacause only the proud moon could shine to our eyes we were very young and we tried to blow the barrier
our four breaths gathered by our fear of never see the stars again at midnight in a chill wind slow motion of our bodies in the snow sweet crackles under our feet the heat of cold snow in our hands brought us joy the snowballs were carrying our dreams
and in the morning the sky is rose and the trees are statues of ice a silence.. no singing birds the white coat of snow purifies our souls as it hides our fears and memories and when the sun melts it away and put our feet back on the muddy groud
