Come, Snow, bury me so deep in your womb
that I don’t ever feel compelled to find a way out.
Numb me so thoroughly that my taste for numb disappears,
that my burning lungs stop begging for more.
Fill me so completely that regret and loss and hope
all fall out of my stomach never to return.
Harden my heart and take my tongue with a clean break
Force me to give up air for water, land for sea.
Never make me surface again, Snow.
