Snow Patrol [Villanelle]

by aDORKable x3   Apr 1, 2007


Covered lies, unseen by naked eyes
Footprints trample the new fallen snow
All the pain, hidden by more lies

The pain, you can plainly realize
But no one's supposed to know
Covered lies, unseen by naked eyes

Slipped away, as she passes and dies
Laying on the ground, upon her, you bestow
All the pain, hidden by more lies

Solemn tears fall from reddened eyes
Blood mixed with the lace-white snow
Covered lies, unseen by naked eyes

Hiding in the depths of Death's despise
Where no one has yet to go
All the pain, hidden by more lies

Snow patrol, searching from the skies
All because she didn't say no
Covered lies, unseen by naked eyes
All the pain, hidden by more lies
