Autumn's Ashes Date: Thursday, 1st April 2010 @ 11:24:59 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: regent Tattered leaves dance around dying trees sweetly and with longing to attach to their once lovers, they're lost and never to be found, into the gutter What passion lost in fall, end of summers love My lips as dry and frail as the decaying sun catchers Without the touch of beauty I grasped for a season without reason When does my body begin to crack and fall to pieces without the graceful touch from your warm embrace? Why must my green fade away to brown and rustic hues inferior to the vibrancy we once shared Tell me now shall I endure the cold the frozen ground below your reach to once again rejoin with you when autumn fades, when gray fades, when my heart is not but ashes?
