I See You

It's autumnal my heart today
Soon too soon to be
Wintry world of frozen wonders
Life is telling me
Good luck you with the
Resolute stance
In another minute or two
What will you do
They're calling out the last dance
I have no response
But put my eyes down
Think of these many suns
That I have wrapped myself
in strait jackets of tight normalcy
I have no lies nor profound truths
I think of my little fake play
Even then I crept off centre stage

I have only one wisdom that slowly walls up my inner shrine
Dont destroy that which cannot be escaped
Accept the lot
That's thine.

I see you in my heart
A speck of sand,
a grain abysmally small
Ghastly fast the burial begins
So for who do the bells toll?

I did not dream of a lover or a friend
I just saw you taking long walks with me down treebound trails
And I felt soft compliant at ease Walls break down my wails release
The well overflowing life finally showing
The flimsy whimsical breeze
Whispering there's no one left to tell ...rustling the last red leaves.
