Someone once told me never to dive into murky waters
Looking back on the mistakes I’ve made, like it matters…
Seems I’ve always dived head first into danger
only to find the man in the mirror, a stranger…

It’s been a long winter since I left you standing there
Though as the weeks go on, the less and less I seem to care…
I knew I had the doubt and all the power.
Looking back upon that frozen flower.
Phone calls would just reopen that wound
and I find that I might return too soon...
They say heartbreak never heals,
But that’s not the way it feels…
These frozen fields of emotions.
This pain, deeper than the oceans.

Author's Note: I wrote this as I arrived in Snowshoe. It is a minds thought about a person I loved and left.
