Falling Snow

Pure white droplets from another land
Softly they fall running deep into her skin
Chilling her bones, wrapping their icy- fingers around her heart
Gasping for breath she sinks to the ground
Her blood is cold, her body is numb
Hard white shards of glass from another land
Shattering life and taking all
No one shes her fall to the ground
There is no one there who cares at all
Deafening shots
A life is taken
From pure white to blood red it seeps
Snow flakes from another land
Silently they fall
Covering all traces of life
There is no one there who cares at all
