you sit in the shadow of falling leaves
that like your dreams seem to float
breathing hope into tired lungs
like the fresh autumn air.
and it is there that you wait
shivering in the crisp coolness
of this new season and
of these new realizations
Because like pink silk leaves
that now swoop and drop to the grass
your dreams have lost their wind
and on this bench you wait
for your world to restart
and new dreams ease in to place
when the voids of loss are filled
with the shining light of love
then you will move on
leave this world of wait and cold.
Of everchanging but always the same
and move into sweet blissful chaos.
