a white christmas

the first snow is falling
the air is changing
subtle smells of summer are gone
remember how once
we promised we would never change?
the first snow of this year is falling,

i seem to be fine
and at the most random moments it hits me
like when i realize how fast the seasons change
and time seems so little yet large at once
but the first snow of this year is falling,

people are falling in love
i don’t know how long those will last
it’s that time of the year
when we all just wish for a white christmas
we make a wish upon the first snow
as if that might make things just a little bit better

remember how once
we promised we would never change
