\"Veritas Vos Liberabit\"


a snowflake
landing on my face,
for a moment,
it shimmers.
it is beautiful
uniquely precious,
but in a moment
it melts.
i am
left cold,
completely bare.
happiness
or what I know of it,
has left me.

The author's comments:
Life is filled with the fragility and impermanence of what may be happiness. Though it appears in many forms, it comes and goes not to please, but as it pleases.
