I can't wait for that first gust of crisp cold air.
To stand outside and embrace nature.
I can already hear the crackling of the firewood.
Followed by music and laughter from around
Smores are being made
Crunching sounds are followed shortly there after
The hint of rain is in the air
This is fall

The morning whispered in my ear with delight
Beckoning for a hug
I open my arms and embrace the hug
For how much I missed the warmness
It brought back memories of a different time
Bouncing brown curly coiled hair
Caramel skin, the air filled with cocoa butter
Her honey brown eyes met mine followed by a smile
Oh, how this face meant something to me once
Now all it does is beckon to lure into the darkness

Another loss in front of my eyes
I feel as if a star exploded in my chest
I close in on myself until the void fills all
Just to be left empty but full
Time without you is all but my existence
I try to hold on yet I feel out of place
This feeling is heavy like a burden
Somehow we know what that feels like
Place your weight on me
And you'll see how much is lifted
I'll gather all my dues and pay the toll
Just to be bright one more time

There's not enough hate in the world to describe myself
I hate myself so much I create haste for that affect
The embodiment of hate is just my name
Go and seek shelter for my name brings chaos
It drives fear into my heart and prosper in others
To use and abuse me in their life

Now I'm truly alone.
Your voice is just but an echo.
Bouncing around my mind.
Trying to find a way out.
But that's what's keeping my memory alive.
You're the reason my heart beats.
I am truly alone.
Yet your name is powerful enough to keep me existing.

It's funny that timing is everything.
Who's to say this isn't the first time.
We've probably met in many different lifetimes.
I've probably searched all my life for you.
What others told me was a waste of time I ignored them.
The only time I had was to find you.
I searched far and wide.
I was in many different regions.
My love for the search was endless.
I'd hop dimensions just to see you once again.
Not only this lifetime but in others.
What else is there to you but a mystery.
How do I know that you'll take me.
I've seen myself many times but I'm never with you.
How many times do I have to travel to just see you once.
There's a possibility that in one time you're mine.
Until I find that one spot where you're at.
I'll keep searching until I fall over and wither away.
When I see my God I'll beg to send me back just to look for you.
And see what really lies beneath that mystery.
Until then, this journey is still on schedule.

I remember everything before the fall
How I swayed in the air
How I have seen many nights and days
How I've seen many seasons come and go
I remember it all before the fall
Then one day it all changed when
I was no longer needed
I remember the sensation when I was dropped
All I could think of is how to get my way back
The fall felt like a million years but in mere
Seconds I was on the ground
Ready to begin anew
