It's that time when all the leaves are falling
The air is getting chilly
Time of death
Reflection
Pondering
I look at the lights
They remind me of you
Yet our time was so short
I don't know if I will ever see you again
You seemed like my soul mate
I couldn't be sure
If God would grant me one request
I request this:That he gives me one more day with you
Until then
I watch the autumn leaves fall
Accepting the eventual tumbling of fate
I hoped that by going to the woods
I could escape this wrath
An itching pain inside my skull
Stabbing wounds into my heart
Find another place to hide for now
Maybe among animals
I wouldn't know what monsters awaited there
I would find out
I would keep running if that was what I needed to do
Until the dream would end
"The emptiness, it's so cold"
I almost fell
Because right where the meadow met the woods
An emptiness
A gap between the other side
And a voice more ghastly than the one of the sky
It seemed to scream 'Death'
It was very cold
"I wish I was still alive," said the voice
I wish I was dead
That was what I was bargaining for
As I stood near the edge I had almost fallen off
Staring into deep space
I considered once more my options
Then the sun started to rise on the horizon
Sounds grew still
The voices were quiet
