Peace with the Fallen Leaves

if one wish could be granted, summer months would be it. what i want back is what i now lack. my hand on your shoulder, as you roll me forward. sun shines down on to me and your glow's what i see. hair lifted from my forehead, as the breeze is led by the ocean's current, matching eyes blue-green mint. so what i want back daily is the time when you were with me. not across a state, but so close i need not wait. yet i have finally made peace which the changing fallen leaves. though my wish wasn't granted time moves toward what i've wanted. apart from you feels wrong and the wait is far too long. yet it is just a fraction of the time ours will become. my hand back on your shoulder, as you pull me toward your hips and your chest, that i lay body and head against. my one in my dream became reality. a faceless feeling i wanted, now has been replaced. so finally i have made peace with the colored fallen leaves. and fear that us will never be no longer consumes me.
