Sweet Darkness

Oh snow, so white so sweet so pure

you are the most beautiful I know for sure

Naive, and innocent, you are so fair

But what is in you, I'm not aware

you look as if you hide a secret

a burden if you will

something so deep and dark 

that is only there to kill 

Oh snow, so sweet so white so lonely

I feel that you are the one and only 

you dance, sing, you most beautiful thing

but when I feel you I get a burning sting

You're daggers that dig, like the lonely man on the corner 

dreaming of a swig

a swig of poison and bad judgment 

and freedom that will come

you blindly walk and freely talk 

when people go and watch to stare 

but the only thing they ever see 

is you ripping out your hair 

So this is it a simple ode 

the only thing I hope showed 

Naive and innocent you are so fair 

but what is in you I do not care.
