When Summer met Fall

When Summer met Fall

A Poem by Aziz Luther
"

The mistakes I've made

"
It began in the later part of Spring
The time the last of the birds where up to sing
Water from the stream fresh and the last to be seen

This moment I drank from the fountains of her youth
Hoping to be renewed hoping to cleanse myself with truth
Or simply rid of the lies
Enjoy the last of the clear blue skies
Look into the clearest of views
Before the suns scorches into my eyes

Summer has arrived,
Always loved her but not this time
She had an extra ray of sun penetrate my skin
And the light led me blind

The heat and no where to hide
Shame put on the light all I have left is pride
I was so distracted by her torture
Dried up, laid on the dry ground hoping for water
But all I got was I told ya
Good boys don't do bad on the roller
Up my head swirling are vultures
Watching and waiting for me to fall in a deep sleep

Yet I move to fall another day
Or fall at the end of summers long day
I rarely get to see desert rain
She only shows me the hot days, the pain

Wait I missed the bus that takes me out today
To meet the lovely miss Fall of the Fall
Who invited me to a royal ball
But the overheated summer has prevented me to go
I missed a chance to go to the best Fall Ball
