The Fall, It's Armageddon

Summer always feels the best
Happy little hearts
Riotous f*****g mess
Dimples there on freckled faces
Hold him close to fill the spaces
Tell me what this new heart chases
The Fall, it's Armageddon

Summer always feels the best
Busy little hands
Money for a dress
Sea green eyes set in olive skin
Whisper his name and smile at sin
Remember the loss, now she's empty within
The Fall, it's Armageddon

Summer always feels the best
Dirty little feet
Never quite depressed
Familiar melodies spinning in ears
Throw back a shot and a couple of beers
The good man he's gone, but still there aren't tears
The Fall, it's Armageddon

The Fall, it's Armageddon
It all becomes unraveled
The winter snow covers every road that has been traveled
Inner peace has now escaped you
Left her in pieces, ruptured, askew
Believed she was together, but she needs a stronger glue
Summer always feels the best
Summer is a temporary fix
Summer fools the mind- it tricks
Because the Fall, it's Armageddon.

"Whisper his name and smile at sin", this is genius. I'm going to read all your poems, I'm stunned.

Well, by the title, I though this was going to be about the end of the world this year by the Mayan prediction. I was pleasantly surprised. Your poem is very accessible. It is amazing how the seasons affect our moods.

its nice to read poems like this, i havnt seen one in a while about seasonal change and using it it express deeper meaning. I love how you have twisted it and made it more extreme than the ordinary mundane 'its summer its nice and happy, now here comes winter its going to be sad". its a gripping and entertaining a very good read thank you =)
