Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall
Leaves risk their lives, plunging toward pavement
Good thing they’re already dead – if I did that
It would result in my own destruction
Fall results in a renaissance
A rebirth of beauty
Time
Passes
By
Petals peeling away their icy shells, unfailingly bright
Spring again brings life anew as it floats through
Maybe spring will finally ease my inner self
At last moving past the wounded response
Of your scathing sentiments
Time
Passes
By
Sipping tea when it hits me once again
Fall snuck up on my healing heart
Waves of remembrance wash over
Will
This
Ever
Stop
