Amidst the Falling Snow  
by C.R.M. Nilsson

She hopes for her tears to turn to ice. She wants them heavy on her cheeks. The pain of tearing them away from the skin might sooth the pain in her heart. She wants to shatter them.

She wants to sink into the snow. Fall asleep. Never wake up again.

It hurts. Her heart. Her body. Her soul.

She turns and trudges back inside.
