As
the winds change direction and the sun grows colder
Her thoughts veiled by the faint shadows
All life
slowly fades into the grey
Alone
she stands brighter than ever
Revealing
the approaching fall
The
fascinating world around, a reticent giver
Was never
her own to keep
What was
borrowed shall be bequeathed
Truth,
a bitter pang in her heart
Reflected
within the lonely tears
Time
trickles through as the day grows older
Her memories
held dear fall apart
The sullen
pieces drift around
Scintillating
for the very last time
Painting
the sky in hues of solemn colors
The
dying light leaves behind shadows darker
Her
thoughts obscured by sorrow
As the
day finally draws to an end
Her
eyes closed in complete silence
Anticipating
the arrival of fall
