Nature's Lessons
So beautiful, so graceful, so lovely.
White flurries float from the dark sky.
Black roads coated by a sea of sparkling white.
As quickly as the snow falls,
Frozen death awaits those naive and unprotected.
Danger awaits those who take the white roads for granted behind the wheel.
His beauty shines and reels you in.
His sweet words lure you in closer.
You walk to him, mesmerized, open and exposed.
As quickly as you fell for his charm,
Your heart rips to shreds and you wonder why.
You blame the boy you fell in love with.
There's no point in getting angry at the snow.
Disguised danger will still roam and you can still break.
Learn to protect yourself.
Slow your pace and take your time
Everything can hurt you.
Dont let it.
