They lay, silent on the ground
awaiting your footsteps
to kick them around.
Those autumn leaves,
their rich colours abound.

Pulse quickens, your palms sweat
city lights mesmerize you
lead you to the path of regrets
where broken hearts welcome you
Love-junkies looking for their fix
Hoping you'll be the one
who'll carry the potion to their lips.

I built my nest upon a hill
to gase at the striking view,
a spectrum of vibrant colours,
the seasons of my life renewed.

Age-defying remedies fill up
every nook of her shelves
playing Russian-Roulette
with her vanity
and her excessive admiration
of herself...
And now as she remembers clearly,  transfixed in the mirror of time
She realizes she is still a model
of a very old paradigm.

"Shhh...walk on, babe..."
"Where to? Ain't got no home"
"Can't help you there babe
Mine's been hit by a storm
of lies, mistrust and doubt
It'll take an eternity to sort it out"

"Can I really trust you?"
" You'll figure it out"
"Yes, but dissecting you
leaves me raw
and feeling distraught".

Where I came from people gather around 
A table, decorated with a cornucopia
Of harvest's fruits and gifts
abound
And here I sit so far away,
wishing I was homebound
to enjoy this special
day.

...Happy Thanksgiving Canada...

Verse Xscape Oct 2020
At starting line, outspoken
At finish line, heartbroken
You and I were once a token
Now, words are left unspoken

Try
My love for you I declare
On roof tops in canyons
Superficially we're just friends
I want more I always do
Shading the sparkles in my eyes
And velvet of my cheeks
Whenever you're around
They say it's not meant to be
You say it can't be
But we all know it could
Only if the numerical age difference didn't matter to you
I'd be certain like me you were willing to try
Feeling affection for older friends Is just so difficult
