White flakes like knives
Fall from the sky.
Threatening to take the lives
Of those who lie.

Ripping apart the air.
Shredding the peace.
Destroying all care.
Leaving but a small piece.

Intaking a cold breath,
Searing my lungs and heart,
Freezing life to feel like death,
It will get worse, this is just the start.

One step at a time
Toward a wintry grave.
Uttering one final rhyme
I cannot be saved.

The moon shines bright
Between dark clouds.
I walk out of sight,
Away from the crowds.

Death may prey
In this endless cold.
Now I end this day,
For I will never be old.

Not bad but a bit dark and morbid

this is a terribly depressing poem.

be careful saying things like this - for what you say is what you get.

after my wife died I went to a grief chat thing online and nearly everyone who had died had said something usually joking about death like this - and then something happened and they died.

it's horribly selfish.
