Autumn

Amidst poems and snippets

And spring and winter

Comes the fall with its cozy steps

Raw, real and bold

Surely, it’s about the gold

The pictures come out perfect

The moments- I don’t know

It seems beautiful at first

Unless I don’t lift that veil

We all carry a bit of autumn inside us

Where the fall resides fearlessly

Vulnerable yet beautiful

Scared yet scarred

Losing yet hoping

Seeing yet wishing

Holding on yet letting go

The leaves have turned gold

And if truth be told

They’re lovelier than the greens

Carrying all that they have learnt from summer, they’re everything but weak,

They are singing but not hoping

Swaying but not screaming

Wanting but not saying

And yea, Falling but not failing.
