Strong and tall
you built impenetrable walls,
you invited me in
to sit with you for a while,
when truly a moment was all you had...
With a dysfunctional heart, I knew
I was facing the inevitable winds of change,
as we slipped through the cracks of time
I struggled to memorize your smile...
To remember every soft line, every whisper;
when you told me you loved me,
why did you blind my eyes?
blurring hues of red...
Your unspoken words,
I turn them over and over
inside my head,
as Autumn begs to move on...
