Reasons

The snow glistens with the sun 
To shine in my eyes
I look away,I start to cry
The wind blows across my face
I must find my place where I belong
The rain falls gently from the sky
I sit and wonder why from time to time
The rainbow dances in the blue sky
To remind me of a time when I used to try
As the snow falls to the ground 
I quietly realize I am safe now.
