Alone
cold.
alone.
waiting.
immeasurable,
unbearable,
violent pain.
confusion and fear,
nature doesn’t care.
snow falls
with no regard
for mere mortals.
numbness,
exhaustion,
then despair.
no one is coming.
screams unheard-
endless pleading,
hope disappears.
snow falls-
quiet,
peaceful,
uninterrupted.
