The cool autumn breeze

Carries my thoughts

Upon the falling leaves

As they float through the air

On a journey unknown

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

Falling Leaves

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
