Fall

turn the heat up in your room till you grow dizzy

let out a cry, it was once warm outside

the sunsets changed colours faster than leaves

fall on your bed, pretend that you chose to

pretend you can still control your actions

keep rolling over until you hit the floor

there's no where for you to land anymore

the coat you bought it looks so pretty

but it doesn't keep you warm

it's getting awfully cold out

dear, shouldn't you be warm

the boots you wear are frayed in the toes

so time comes and so time goes

you can fray like your favourite boots

but even you can't keep you warm anymore

reds and oranges always stand for strength

and boldness, except for now, in nature

it is weakness now, the decomposition

of what was once beautiful, full and green

so time comes and so time goes

so layers wear thin and the true you shows

so this is the most depressing season of all

how apt that they should name it fall.
