The time when autumn was no longer cozy

Do you feel it?

the autumn leaves shedding,

with the pace of unstoppable tears

the cold air,

dominating the warmth in my heart

the fading boundaries,

between dusks and mornings

can you see me?

breathing hard,

in the dense air of grief, sorrows and regrets

my brain heaving with nostalgia,

with the ground flaking under my feet

do you know?

how it feels to stop in the middle of a journey,

and look back to wave someone,

already knowing they're not there

how it feels,

to smell unscented flowers,

hoping they would scent this time

how it feels,

to wait for phone calls,

from no longer used numbers

can you tell me?

how to chase your memories away?

they entered my mind once,

and now have became permanent parasites

can you favor me?

take these cold winters with you,

as they mock me

and stamp their feet,

at the only embers left in the ashes of my heart,

trying to extinguish them
