Notes About The Poem

It Is Snowing

and I press my palm against my heart . . . 
     I am holding in an awful ache and p a i n
            my soul is stone COLD and bleeding ice
                            snow is  f a l l i n g  and melting into tears
                      weeping mourners are fading away
     this LOVE will be forever and ever-  I   w h i s p e r
            then-  I place a  RED rose to my lips
                            and leave it  d y i n g  on your tomb 
                     inside me is this horrid emptiness
     like a dagger has been PLUNGED into my heart
            I cannot not fathom a life without you-  l o v e
                            snow is FALLING and melting into tears
