Snowfall by Celia M Paulo

Snowfall

Where does it lead
This life we live
Do we know
Where we are going

Do we like
The things life is showing us
What is this life we live
Does it leave a trace
Does it evaporate
Does it bring us closer
To who we are
Do we give up the search
Of self identity
For fear of alienation
In our relations to each other
The anonymity of another winter day
Who are we
Do we seek approval
Regardless of the cost
What does it take
To be faithful to ourselves
Do we mistake love
For fear of loniness
Do we live in dependency
Disguised as relationships
Do we settle for less
Than we deserve to receive
Do we know enough
To give what we want
What do we long for
When our breathes
Share that same room
How do we bring about
The peace within our core
The love within our heart
How do we live the life
Our soul calls for
...what reminiscences does it bring
A snowflake
Twirling wildly on the wind?
