Seasons Fall

Each night underneath the moon
Imagining your hand holding mine
Every sublime summer afternoon
Walking together in the sunshine

I want to see the color of your skies
After a breeze makes the clouds depart
Skies I see in your wide blue open eyes
Reflected back from within your heart

The flame within the orange orb
This candle waits for the birthday cake
Burning brighter than fireworks in the Park
On Tuesdays hot summer night by the lake

The hollow headed monster rides once more
Headless maybe, but not nearly a heartless soul
The Halloween Knight torched the sleeping lore
To write of love buried deep in his fiery hole

Each innocent thought I think of you
Betrays me and I want your raw desire
Every time you speak I see your lips
And taste my lonely heart’s raging fire

I’ve been looking back into the past
To find the love hidden forever after
Been listening for whispers at speeds too fast
To hear you cry the sound of passions laughter

Every cold, rainy morning
I want to hold you and entwine
This Ogre’s dream you are adorning
Wrapped tightly together, we combine

I can’t write words with passion enough
To express feelings moving within my heart
Surging with softness pretending to be tough
All the while knowing it’s time for us to part

Standing beneath a hot shower this morn
Loosening muscles stiff from stillness and cold
With no one to share warmth this life is forlorn
Hard porcelin walls grown over with mold

Seasons fell while I slept last night
I awoke to snow layered on the dying red leaves
The first fall in Fall made the colors turn white
Cold air surrounds me unlike the blanket snow weaves

In a winter night’s snowfall
The snow reflects the ambient light
Listen, You can hear them fall
The beats of my heart, in the quiet night

While walking to work it fell
With crunching beneath each step that I took
A cutting north wind felt colder than Hell
Lost in the snow squal where no one will look
