Some people are afraid of death Some people say death is scary But in the trees death is beautiful Colorful leaves signaling the end of the warm summer But then the air turns cold Wisps of frozen air blow through the leaves Knocking them to the ground Making you realize the harsh reality of death That when something dies it is gone A memory of what it once was hangs in the empty limbs of the trees Like a memory Slipping from your fingertips But it still lingers in your mind

Beautiful Tragedy
Some people are afraid of death Some people say death is scary But in the trees death is beautiful Colorful leaves signaling the end of the warm summer But then the air turns cold Wisps of frozen air blow through the leaves Knocking them to the ground Making you realize the harsh reality of death That when something dies it is gone A memory of what it once was hangs in the empty limbs of the trees Like a memory Slipping from your fingertips But it still lingers in your mind
