Forever Eternal

Snow drifts like a river,
An ocean full of stars,
Always existing somewhere,
Somehow always bringing joy.

Snow does not know thy name,
Or know thy heart,
But even in the darkest days,
Snow can tell apart.

Snow may not feel emotion,
Or have an open mind,
Simply an object of hope,
To those just getting by.

Snow is the pureness of the world,
But is forever tainted by thy hand,
Never seen for too long,
For thy life, is forever eternal.
