Autumn

The days are cold and dark There is no color no life Simply shades of white and gray The nights are colder still Alone I gaze out at the world All the hate all the controversy I try to quiet my troubled mind With thoughts that can only lead to chaos Love is dead buried long gone One simple thing is all I desire So close but just out of reach Help me please Bring back the color the light The warmth only you can give I'm so cold so alone Cloaked in the frigid darkness of my solitude Withering Like a flower in autumn
