Autumn
The red and orange leaves fall on the road as I drive
Shakily committing to the path in front of me
I’m not hungry anymore
Angry at slow drivers
The wind hits my face as nausea simmers in my stomach
I bounce my bad leg
Music floats through the warm autumn air
Sunlight lingers on it
And here I sit, knocked off balance
Because of
Red and orange hair
Shining in a flash – like a coin that is no longer mine
Burned into my irises and my senses
And suddenly, I’m not right
Because of you
One thought on "Autumn"
