Autumn Air

I get a smell of the autumn air It's too soon but it's welcome I feel a fall breeze It covers me with warmth it surrounds me My stomach is turned to knots my mind and body uneasy But this is comforting The fall smells so good, so clean it's one of my favorite smells in the world The air tells tales of Halloween and Thanksgiving Things to come Pleasant and sweet But the air brings with it memories of times pased Good times and bad All I can feel is happiness for the future and sorrow for the past Things, people, places all unfinished business and "what if's" So many lifetimes all in one My heart aches for the ones I've lost I will never forget them They will always be with me No matter what time or place I will never forget the ones I've shared time with in the autumn air
