autumn leaves
everyone leaves
she leaves
he leaves
crunching footsteps fade away
dead leaves
but death doesn’t
a colorful blanket
a dying reminder
nothing is forever
change is the only constant in this ever-rotating dying and living spinning chaos
red and yellow leaves
smell like flames
curling towards a purpling sky
sunlight leaves
creeping stealthily over hills
to hide in a bed of stars
I beg you
come back again tomorrow
