A poem about losing someone to themselves.

Aokigahara in the Winter

* * *

Can I maybe talk you through,  
a brand new point of view -  
where you aren't as mean,  
as you have always been?

You say you have your reasons  
for all the ways that you are;  
you change like the seasons,  
despite having come so far.

I am afraid of where you go,  
that you might not come back;  
your sins are lost in the snow,  
and have gone with your track.
