She jumps back and forth on a mud stained road. Her little yellow boots violently shattering the tranquility of shallow puddles. " I trample upon the weak" A breeze, moaning softly of autumn confessions lifts her blonde hair and reveal 2 bright opals reflecting a dark sky. The smell of mouldy cornfields and rotting leaves ****** the noise. Leaves gritting their teeth. Blissfully she splatters through the countryside. " My scars mark the path which you shall follow" A sudden halt of the feet, fleeting moments of gazing into her own reflection. A realisation of nothingness.. Just for a brief spell She realises that she is alone... That she has no meaning... " I walk this road alone, I am the shepard of a flock made of condensed hope." A flash of lightning breaks the introspection. Woefully she splashes along the dirt road, relishing the autumn mirage of a dying countryside. Her rubber boots squeaking followed by soft snickering. " I refuse to see the harsh and bleak snow that hangs in the clouds." a vast ocean of black looks up from a shallow puddle at my feet. Her boots in my stained hands... I lean myself against a shovel, stabbed firmly yet violently into the muck of the earth. And for a glimpse i see her reflection. For a moment i realise I am alone my life has no meaning. A flash of lightning breaks my introspection. The haze lifts and i see her opal eyes gaze up at me from the shallow puddle.. " A shepard with no flock is unfit to guide the innocent to their home." Those opaline eyes blaming me, judging me. A burden unfit for my shoulders. I toss the dirt in her eyes. As i place mine ear against the ravaged and ***** soil of the earth.. I hear her boots squeaking.. and soft splashes. " I tread upon the corpses of the weak." Raindrops paint black the world.. Each drop her eye... gazing me down... Blaming me for deeds that were done. I yearn to return... To those days Of whispering autumn breezes, rotting leaves... And her... Blisfully jumping around in shallow puddles... As i watched her from behind the trees.

Returning rain
