Notes About The Poem

Image result for graveyard in the snow

Premiere Contest WinnerI Wrote My Name


       I wrote my name in snow,
         the snow that lay upon your grave;
Oh, my darling, I have become death's slave,
      your engraved name aglow-

       Calls me in the darkness,
         and in my dream I come walking;
is that you who whispers my name talking,
      in this cold vast starkness-

      I need to turn away,
         time for me to put out this flame;
oh, my darling please stop calling my name,
      let me start a new day-
