The first taste of autumn
landed on my lips
sweet like a rain
born on lovers day
wishing to never go away
but it can not stay
soon it's gone and i'm swarmed by
emotions of different colors as they fly by
keeping the cycle going without a rest
monotony silenced, supressed
and i gaze upon the chaos
as it changes what i know
into a new form
one that has never been seen before
and soon will be long gone
its then that i feel first drops of fall
waterdrops cascading down from heaven heights
taking on me its toll
reminder of lost time and wasted nights
i run, through curtain of tears coming from the sky
hurrying there where my heart begs me to dare
dare what i know cant be changed but i can not stop
i dare to try and change, dare that i could not bear
for one heart a beacon, shinning light in the mist
a light that becons me to go against time
to stop the winter of our life
i wish for autumn to last past the last leaf
to bear the cold as we do the wither
without succumbing to eternal dream
to keep the sweet, avoid the bitter
but seasons change and so do the living
craving the moments of bittersweet to keep them going
there is no progress without an end
snow is coming, would you hold my hand
