Inspired by the change in season, I came up with this piece. I hope you all enjoy!
I fell for you like leaves on a crisp fall morning,
All the signs were there, but still no warning.
It started gradually, but then it was quick,
Before I knew it, I was a thin, naked stick.
Day after day, I continued to fall,
Into a tree so bare, lanky, and tall.
I changed for you, but it still wasn’t enough,
Claimed you loved me, but I’m calling your bluff.
I lost all of me changing for you,
I guess the love you had for me was never really true.
