Seasons

These autumn leaves dance 
Falling by your head 
As crows sing to you 
You wish you were dead 
For every night gets colder 
Every day seems sad 
Since the day of summer was had

Snows of beauty cover 
The tree you sit under 
The one birds gather 
You wish you were dead 
For every night gets warmer 
Every day seems sad 
As these distant memories are had 

New blossoms bloom 
On your tree of hope 
The one the crows roost on 
You wish you were dead 
For every night gets closer 
Every day seems sad 
While the flowers bring tears for the one you had 

Sun in all it's glory 
Beats down on lonely heart 
That will never beat again 
You are dead 
For every night ached 
Every day was sad 
Because the one you loved 
Is never coming back

How moving, gripping. My heart aches.

For every night gets closer
Every day seems sad
While the flowers bring tears for the one you had

Wonderfully written! I think I need a hug.

. ahhh ... quite a remarkable piece of poetry this is ... and the way it ends is particularly brutally beautiful ...
