Little Snowdrop

I was with you all through the winter,

But like a snowflake, I melt with your every smile.

Cloaked in white, a muse bruised with frostbite,

My petals thaw in the frost's afterglow.

Yes, I was with you despite the blizzard, but then,

I found that we fair maidens only breathe in the snow.
