Behold the Snow

Behold the snow all clear and white
Within its glow a winter’s sight
It settled in sometime last night
While fires of passion burned so bright

He told her that he loved her so
He bared his heart to let her know 
She knew his love was pure as snow
And that he’d never let her go

For them the clouds seemed always white
And kiss filled laughter all they know
They never felt the cold of snow
When every star showed future bright

Yet endless bliss just wasn’t so
For she had other dreams in sight
So much to do before her night
And so for now she had to go

Then in his hand was something bright
Which loosed a shriek into the night
Now hidden somewhere out of sight
Behold the snow all clear and white
