autumn leaves

these autumn leaves hold you and me

autumn leaves

they lie on the ground

i hear laughter in one

loud tear drops in another

some delicious whispers

that melt in ears

like roasted marshmallows

in campfires

of silhouettes shaped by

the shades of shadows

sung by the moon

other bitter screams

that strike the heart

like spears spilling life

in rotting fields

of blackness from

spells of fairies

without souls

still some from somewhere

passing by silently

solitude without a smile

these autumn leaves

hold you and me

for a times time

‘til they feed

the hungry ground

with lives

to funeral

lyre
