Alexandra & Pavel

Nights fell so quickly at this time of the year and only now I started to pay attention to things coming and going from my life. I was watching the snow glisten in the street light as it idly fell to the ground, enveloping everything in a thin layer of white innocence. Yes, I sound pathetic and yes, there was something innocent about the snow. It disappears before it gets too old, before its seen too much. It reminds me of her back then, always wanting to go before she was in too deep, always looking for a way to untarnish herself. At 18 she sparkled so bright, it was obvious she would burn too quickly, but who am I to say anything now? "Its better to burn, then to fade away, " she said once, and now I was fading away. I've been fading away for the past 8 years and she's been one constant Wednesday - the day I'm still feel my dreams.
