As the white sand
Of the beach at night
Melts into the fog
Along the bay
The monochromatic
background
Has the feel of summer
snow
In the shining darkness
I reach out for your
hand
But I can't tell if
you're near me
Or discern the sea from
sand
I feel my lips whisper
you name
As the silence hurts my
ears
The haze piles in drifts
around me
Flailing as I try to
breathe
The accumulation pins my
arms and legs
As I long to move ahead
To the place you hold in
my life
Buried deep in summer
snow
I can hear the ocean
laughing
Mocking me to impress
the breeze
I've become an easy
target
Damp and weeping on my
knees
I can make it if you'll
let me know
That you'll help me
clear the summer snow
