Summer’s tears drip golden leaves

As bronze tints blush on Nature’s face

Weeping rustles ash-hued trees

While Sun reaches towards Fall’s embrace

Morning bites; the apples, crisp

Harvest moon, tall corn fields splay

Winds bend branches; cloud skies wisp

As sunlight wanes to shortened days

Between her life and dust, the grave

Blaze of brilliance; torching flames

Beauty bleeds; cicadas fade

Crushed beneath each barren frame

Kiss the dusky sunset skies

August, swallowed by September

Gone, before you realize;

Green leaves ghosts in Autumn’s embers

The brilliant sun shines down upon me, not too hot, but just right for this time of year as Autumn slowly approaches us. A slight breeze ruffles through my hair and it feels refreshing. Today is the perfect day to relish the great outdoors, only because they will soon come to an end, only to be replaced with bitter cold and falling snow.

nothing ever feels right

stuck in between.

you’re too young for serious,

too old for innocence.

you never get a chance,

stuck between two generations.

you’re too jewish to be baptized,

too christian to read torah.

you’re always just wrong,

stuck between two religions.

you’re too gay for them,

not gay enough for someone else.

you never fit in,

stuck between two sexualities.

nothing ever feels right.

it can’t feel right

when you are stuck

inbetween

I wake up

To a reality that feels like dream

When I am in your skin

And you’re in mine

But still the heart that beats

Counts us as one.

I wake up

As you in the morning

Just to be amazed at how stunning

The beautiful ray once it touches

Your pristine skin

That makes me feel like

I’ve fallen for you

A thousand times more

I wake up

To find the pretty blue eyes of mine

That you use to gaze back at me

As you hug me hard

They are just pools of thoughts

Nobody ever pays attention to

But you make a brave decision to

Jump into it

Seeing my soul through it

And to never leave ever since

I wake up

And here we are

In a world where we are being the people we are again

And as the breeze kicks in

And I kiss you a good morning

I cannot help from wishing that morning never comes

So that I will spend the night my entire life with you.
