Now It's Autumn

Puzzling to say the least

The leaves fall like they're supposed to this time of year

Same colors

Same smell of wind and smoke surrounds my seat

A cool breeze to make my dreams flow smooth

Like a chilled river stream

Still the same cotton

Pink and red

Collecting what I longed to tuck behind my ears

And settle subtly in my holster 

That I pray no one should ever see for themselves

All I wanted was for you to come home

I want you to show me a picture you drew

Tell me about the paints you used

And why you used them

All I wanted was to see you feel something other than that which is innate to my existence

I lost my heart

Though not broken and surely to be obtained

I smile until my eyes close so I don't see sadness

The humming birds never wanted to see you cry

They were supposed to protect you

Pour the clearest water and confer the freshest fruits

Now it's Autumn

The leaves are falling

I can never let you go

I wanna see you smile

As it gets colder please wear a jacket

And your silk scarves so you feel classy

Walk like when the days surpass they don't get colder and shorter

The wind will carry you

I hope you float below my tree

I pray you will be set free someday
