The white veil
obscures things.
When the flurry
becomes a blizzard
it’s not hard
to wander off path
to get lost in the cold
or to seek shelter
in a stranger's arms.

Wow, this is such a fitting metaphor. The problems of a marriage can be just like a blizzard that send you sort of wandering off...
-
Very unique point of view you give in this.
-
Wow, I feel like I could have written this one. I know exactly what you mean.
-
This is a bit of a downer. I am one of those romantics who hopes that love will last forever with just one person. I know, I'm a dreamer.
-
Well, I can understand this kind of wandering off path. It happens before we even know what hit us.
-
Very true! Good job
-
Excellent
Wow, you have a real talent with imagery. Great job yet again! -
Oh how this is true. I really loved the last two verses, they made me think of myself. Stupid girl I am at times, especially in love. Oh well, I'll learn from my mistakes and melt the friggin snow with my blow dryer
hehe, just kidding. Seriously though, I liked this much. The meaning is very deep, thought provoking. The description of life's events, as the flurry and blizzard is very good. I can really relate to this poem.. unfortunately, and this was quite powerful. Short and bitter 
hehe, anyways, I enjoyed this thoroughly. And thank you very much for the comment

Thank you very much. I am having fun here

Wow. That was amazingly well written. I loved the scene that this drew. Mainly because I know how it is to wake up a couple years later and realize that you married a stranger. Beautiful and sad words. Great poem. I love the title, too. Welcome to AllPoetry. I hope you like it here. I am obsessed. Write on. ~~SpydurPoet~~

Yes, marriage does tend to obscure things. The endearing habbits they had before hand become annoying obcessions afterward. We need to weigh things heavily before making any dire moves, however.
