so slowly
and snow outside
drifts softly,
I sit with you-
so quiet.
This silence is a riot. - I really like this oxymoron!
Awake some early morning,
dull and entranced,
I await the storm
behind the cold, - cold hard glass feels a bit cliché to me
hard glass.
Scattered on the window,
ice has grown
so life-like - not sure what 'life-like' is meant to mean?
in the dim glow
of a street light,
cracking as the wind blows. -
You gaze in my direction,
eyes of fire reflection-
I breathe
on the glass
watching snow engulf mass. - I like this line, but I'm not sure if it fits the tone of the poem..feels less romantic (?) than the other lines
Wisps in shadows
from a howling thunder,
distant on horizons,
clash with sudden lightning.
While time
falls slowly - I think it'd be cool if you structure the poem to use the "time falls slowly" line as a refrain
and you stare,
so lonely,
I look away.
Everything is grey.
