Autumn Leaves
Shades of my life
Fly in the wind
All crispy and dry
Deep auburn red
My prime time youth
Green like the grass
My wisdom as sane
Yellow and bleak
Me losing hope
Brown and withered
Memories to forget
These are the shades of a confused girl's life
Who cluthches mightily at the green and the red
Letting yellow and brown blow far away
And hoping spring will bring a wondrous shade. |
