As the golden leaves
Shimmer and fall
The tree trunk stands
Strong and tall
The autumn breeze swaying
In its midst
My memories
They flutter and fly
Away into a depthless haze
And into a world
Untouched by hate
Stolen by the gust of time
Ripped, torn
From the gaping hole inside
Let me live
Another day
To see the tree
Shed its leaves
To see autumn as it goes
Away
Let me wait
Till winter comes
And coats my heart in
Frosty flakes
Numbing it from the outside
To the core
Let me look with earnest eyes
Upon the world devoid of joy
Let me wait for
Another spring
Where happier times
Await
