Change

Shades of orange
Fall into my hair
Though it may be summer
Fall is in the air

The feeling of an ending
And sudden change around 
So quick and so hard
My knees hit the ground

Amazing to think that
So much can happen
Months ago, this situation
I never thought I'd be in 

But when life hands you lemons
And you make lemonade
When life hands you hell
There are debts to be paid

Though I'm not certain
If my strength will stand
I will walk with the fate
None the less, hand in hand
