Autumn Ashes

Tell me, does time turn us to dust as fire fades to ashes, Does water slide down your face like tears kiss these glasses. A feeling of loneliness but I know that you are near, I see the monster in the mirror and love gives way to fear. Tears of joy have turned to hate all because of me, Dying leaves slowly falling off this aging tree. Like the leaf I hit the ground without a passing thought. All life here has drained away nature's lessons must be taught. Bleeding anguish from the sky in the form of rain, Autumn chills kiss our scars and soothe away the pain. Ashes, ashes from the clouds have turned this world to grey, Autumn ashes in my heart drown the love away.
