the brown hair of fall
her auburn eyes
falling, flitting
across my surface
captivates me once more.
she comes to me
lays herself down
gives way to winter’s slumber.
I’m left cold
alone
waiting
wondering should I wake her
and tell her once again
how this coming and going
leaves me a broken mess–
she’s a fickle companion
and I know time and again
she will have her way with me
and leave me alone in the cold.
