A glance askance reminded me
Of what shall never, ever be
Once autumn’s leaves fell from the trees
My heart and soul fell on bended knees

And it wasn’t easy to walk away,
In spite of what I might have said.
For when I walked away that November day
I went into the cold; now love lies dead.

Yesterday I strolled along a still solo trail,
Let my feelings release from a self-imposed jail.
Today I flipped the calendar to my month of renew,
Found it easier to face the sunshine, without you.

Tender, melancholy write Kacy..
Much enjoyed.
Hugs~Nancy

Now - while the leaves still dance on the wind
While the moon and the clouds come spinning
Will you whisper my name again?
Again...and again...

The trails you walked were soft sometimes
where you felt no pain afoot
recalled perhaps in colored rhymes
to memories they've been put

November days come cold at times
when the northern sun's dipped low
and wish you might for warmer climes
you're caught in life's undertow

Let's hope a trail will intersect
with another's lonely way
to then lead on with great effect
for you on a fresh new day

The fall/spring effect! No, really, Kacy, as I read this...I remembered my first love. Puppy love really...but it was so special, and it happened on an autumn day while we were under a walnut tree picking up the nuts....my first real kiss. (Maybe that is why I always have a longing in my heart when I smell the scent of autumn.) By spring, it was ended...and life went on. Bitter/sweet memory.

What an insightful self-portrait of a lost love. This is a different mood for you, but very well done. Ken

Some things can shadow our lives
only so long...

I'm glad you're back in
your own beam of sunshine...
