snow.flakes

unspeakably broken.
downward, she rolls

her secrets can't hide what
the night always knows

she's looking for signs but
she knows they're not there

and won't ever be there..
no, not... not for HER.

she's building some wings now
from old paper dolls

They claim they can't dance
but she MUST take ONE chance!

Looking straight down now
... deep into cold fire ...

She makes up her mind and
.... steps onto the wire ....

The sky feels so angry
and she has gone blue

her eyes turn to snowflakes.

then
rain
down
on
...YOU...
