Cloudcroft

Where the mountains touch the clouds and hummed a lullaby 
Surrounded by trees covered in snow and dark foggy skies, 
We arrived at our place and had a snowball fight. 

We walked around town,
my converse drenched from the snow
We entered a gas station that I’ve never been before.

I felt so foreign, finally on my own
Being surrounded by friends, 
we never wanted this night to end.

I looked outside and felt a tear stream down my eye
This is exactly what I wanted, a place that won’t leave my mind.
I went on a walk with my hot tea,
It was past twelve and there was no one in sight.

Grey hazy sky that caused the trees to slowly fade
I remember taking it all in, knowing that this won’t happen again.
Walking in silence as I sip my tea
There’s no better place than with the trees.
