There’s such a chill rummaging through my lean body.

Each bone that I possess trembles in the dark,

As if someone is walking over my grave.

Time has no bearing, Nature non-caring.

The only god here is that of survival.

Slowly I edge towards safety.

My brain computes an uneasy calm,

But my walking frame seeks total respite.

Logic dictates if I rest I will fall.

Memories of youth inspire,

While evil forces around me conspire.

The snowstorm now is relentless.

Mercy is officially outlawed.

Naively I thought white was the colour of peace.

I feel tired …………………………….

loved the ending lines...

and it always seems to be so, doesn't it?

just when you think you are at the end...the real trek lies ahead.

enjoyed.

I just about did that..so I fell into your words instead.
