Winter
A Poem About Humans... or More Specifically, Our Nature
Winterin a wayis a metaphorfor humansor more specificallyour nature
Becauselike winterwe can becold
harshdarkunrelentingunforgivingdeadlyand we can beall of those thingsall at once
Butlike winterwe can bebrightdreamlikesparklingenchanting beautifulpureand we can beall of those thingsall at once
And the cycle of wintershould serve as a reminder
that even thoughtimes may get toughand they may seemlike they’ll never endeventuallythey doeventuallythe hard timesbecome easierand the dark timesbecome brighter
And this does not meanthat we will never
experience it all over againbecauselike winterthose hard timeswill returnwhat it meansis like winterthose hard timeswill also end
And all that’s leftfor us to dowhen that happensoverand overand over againis survive
Becauselike winterand all ofits extremesthe most incrediblething about humansis our abilityto endure
