The Leaves Are Falling In My World

The Leaves Are Falling In My World

A Poem by Gooey
"

Ever look out your window on a rainy Autumn day and just wonder?

"

 The leaves are falling

 From trees so high

 And tears are crawling

 From my eyes as I sigh

 Slowly reflected in the mirror

 I'm looking out my window

 At the world beyond

 I'm not sure if what I see though,

 Is the sun that in the morning dawned?

 Or the moon that glistens bright

 Among the puffs, oh wind dispersed

 Not a word is spoken, at first sight of light

 Summer heals what Winter cursed

 The iced and frozen, they melt, they icicles

 At the sound of Spring's delight

 And wash away; dissolve the sadness, into tiny particles

 Yet still the wind is roaring, showing all its freezing might

 And the sunlit sunshine rushes in

 Looking into your tearful eyes

 A gentle breeze now resides, where the wind had been

 Bloomed were all the flower petals, and the butterflies

 Awakened were the smiles of love

 As birds sang and chirped a cheerful song

 Holding hands of freedom, both here and there, above

 Never mind the timeless time, spent here, surely long

 And let the angels hold a grudge

 For heaven here is better, than the heaven way up high

 Here smiling spirits laugh at the jury and the judge

 For passing guilt on our happy hearts, for flying in the sky

 Holding hands as we ascend the clouds

 Looking down at forests of oceans and deserts of lakes

 Jumping high as we cry aloud!

 As the mirror slowly cracks and brakes

 Taking with it all the times we cried

 We knock down the doors of jealous spite!

 As we sit upon the steps, of our will electrified

 I cannot help but screech in fright

 As a giant shadow blocks the sun

 Only to reveal itself, a dreamy cloud of my delight

 At touch of hands, warm with faith

 We attempt this one final leap

 As our hopes swish ever higher, I'm afraid it's much too late

 Back by my window I awake, I realize I had climbed a mountain much too steep

 Watching leaves fall from a distant mile

 Now knowing dreams enchant my faith, I curl up in my world and smile, wait.
