And it snowed,
for the first time in a long time...
That's the day he broke her heart.
That's the day she thought she'd die.
That's the day she knew would come,
just like she knew the snow would.
She knew it would happen,
but she refused to let that stop her,
she pretended the summer would
never end.

And it snowed,
For the first time in a long time...
And he called her for the first time all day.
He knew it'd hurt both of them,
but he had to know for sure.
He didn't mean for it to happen,
but that night he knew it was over,
just like the summer was.
When the snow fell, there was no
turning back.

And it snowed,
For the first time in a long time...
That's the day they were all mad,
'cause they never thought it'd happen again.
And everyone blamed him,
and everyone blamed her.
But they refused to blame eachother.
It wasn't their fault that summer was gone.
The end had come so quickley, so abruptly


           with one snowfall.......

What a great piece of writing, Maria.
Like SEA, I love pieces that start with 'And' too. it brings so much more to the poem because it feels like a continuation from something that isn't there.

This is going into the library. The wording was great, as was the repetition. Well done.

the and and the repetition and everything was good.  First I've seen you here (go figure I've been gone) but I'll be looking around for some more, hehe.

For now, all I can do is dream.
