All that remains: here in my afterlife as a 'mainstream' blogger, with what little I know.

Goodbye To Autumn (Until We Meet Again)
Another 1-Finger Type


Leave
Leave it alone
See how clouds swirl...
Leave
Leave it behind
Smell autumn's arrival
Hear dry foliage clatter
Forgotten laundry
Soon unpinned stems

Come
Come over here
Touch dewed lawn
Come
Come to my voice
Taste sweet apple
Savor sour perfection
Look
Look my way

Harvest this
Not memory
Do not mine
Rockpile of thought
The sun soon departs
While it lasts
Come cast a look
Leave it behind

I cannot
In good conscience
Leave him behind
I cannot
A poor boy confused
Refuses to leave
Ruddy-faced
Blond, blue-eyed
Delusion
Does not know

I cannot
Pure in heart
Look ahead
I cannot
A delicate child
Scared to come
Mussed clothes
Bare of foot
Fears, still
Hasn't realized

I cannot
Quit him
I cannot come
To his aid
We're both stuck
Go on ahead
We're all right here
Say goodbye to autumn
The sun, vistas
Someday seen


Before you go...
Too dark
I'll be here
Until we meet again.



I was beautiful once
Realized too late
Can't get it back
Still inside me
I keep reaching in
But something different comes out
Grasping
Regretting
Shrugging
Energy spurned
Humming deep within
Teasing, reminds
I was beautiful once
Innocent, lost
Still in a dark
Husked heart
Unsheathed
When I near you
Truth lighting
My cavernous soul
With no eyes
I yearn to be within
Reside with you
Describe for me
What's there
So at least I can shed a tear
I was beautiful once
I did not know him
At least I did
Time forgot
I feel him
And he won't come out.
