Closure

They rendezvoused that starlit night,
An overdue exchange;
A lonely field of sparkling white
Within a mountain range

The silvery moon’s reflection
Off the landscape’s glistening snow
Gave everything it’s shadow touched
An otherworldly glow.

Finality worn on their face,
A word not breathed or sighed;
Reliving countless moments
Of a love that lived and died.

Then turning to each other,
Eyes locked in silent pain,
They traded tiny bundles
As snowflakes fell like rain.

And in his ear she whispered low
“Give closure then depart,
I give you all the memories
As you give back my heart.”
