I am stifled by the stale air
The air you exhale in my presence
Puffs of nonsense that belittle
Sighs of disgust, yours, not mine
I try, but get knocked down
Pick myself up, only to fall again
Not at your feet, but at mine
Kneeling, praying, anything
To better understand the why
Or to not understand at all
I’ve been told so many times
And still, these days pass
And nights become terror
As I find myself lost in a dream
Or perhaps, more of a fog
Unable to see what lies ahead
Grateful to be unable to see
What I left behind

She clings to the edge
Not yet ready to let go
Holding on for life

Rooted deep within the earth
Autumn shows her sweet rebirth
Dancing colors in the air
Falling gently without care
She changes for us all to see
How beautiful she can really be
Leaves of red and gold and yellow
Sing to us a song so mellow
Finding peace and tranquility
Among the fallings from the tree

I stumble over myself
Arms and legs a twisted mass
Running in all directions
And getting nowhere
Tripping my way through
Over hurdles too high to jump
Making my way toward
That ever elusive finish line
