Fall

Leaves of every color fall,

Unto my ashen face forever emotionless.

In the sky vultures shriek.

*

Then my heart did stop,

And in its place the coldness thrives.

Never to be heard, the broken pulse.

*

Without light darkness rules,

No one dares utter its cursed name.

In darkness the serpent strikes.

*

Leaves of the rotten fall,

Unto my ashen face devoid of life.

During the night vultures feast.
