Careless

I watch from my window as the leaves turn,
Changing from what is to what is not.
Seasons turn unheeding, unconstrained
Careless of the drama that we are

I watch from my window as the birds soar
And land to tend their feathers once again.
Dreamshape ensnared by mortal flesh and bone
Careless of the drama that we are

I watch from my window as the clouds move
Forming and reforming their gavotte
Ethereal, unbounded and yet frail,
Careless of the drama that we are

I watch from my window as the storm grows
Winds entwine in capriciousness
From loves caresses to assassins blow
Careless of the drama that we are

I watch from my window as the rain falls
As if the world itself is struck by grief
Torrents fall from eyeless eyes above
Careless of the drama that we are

I watch from my window as you walk away
Carrying your bags, umbrella, and my heart
How can you be like all the ones before?
Careless of the drama that we are
