every time like the first
fat flakes hesitating in the sky
muffling the world with a
profound silence
only broken by
a shudder of the house
an ancient creak
like an ice cube
in a glass of hot water
one of the loudest silences
you will ever hear
your lungs expanding
flakes whispering against your eyelashes
and brushing your cheeks
hush.
it says
and we barely dare to breathe
