Autumn Alone

                  leaves,
                     brown and old,
                             sliding,
                           down
                   on ground,
      where yesterday
           was once today,
                and a carress                    
                     a longing for tomorrow.


                       leaves,
            brown and grown,
          falling,
              covering,
                 what was once
                      a crazy sensation,
                   overwhelming,
                soothing.

                    wind,
                       blowing
                         grey and wild,
                     touching,
                  memories,
           flying wildly
               around my mind.

                  wind,
                    strong and cold,
                       roaming my soul,
                     chasing,
                  hidden
        warm thoughts
           that refuse to abandon
                     my heart.

                    rain,
              inviting and blue,
                  dropping,
                  on love,
             as autumn inhales,
                  exhales,
                 swallows me,
                  leaves me
                  kissing,
                   alone.
