the thick humid air
melts into thin nothingness
and the brightly green leaves
that once accented the bright blue sky
fall down and blanket the earth
turning it into an orangey mess
as we wrap up our necks
and let the wind style our hair
we'll overdose on caffeine
and watch scary movies till dawn
leaves will crunch under our boots
and dead blades of grass will slice up our ankles
summer has died
and autumn has been reborn
