Falling Leaves
Maiden with the hair of autumn
Dances in the forest
to consider the beauty
and to twirl among the falling leaves
Eyes intense, licked with fire
match the movement of red satin skirts
Sinful and devious for one so kind.
Dreamer with the hair of summer's rays
watches her,
considers her beauty
and his sun-kissed skin against hers.
Eyes warm even through nightmares of the past housed within
matches her with quiet serenity
and seems wise beyond his years for one so young.
And for a moment their eyes meet
hearts join, become one
But Maiden knows her love's heart is shared with another
The one with the sad cold eyes of winter
and Dreamer knows his heart belongs to two souls.
But for this moment all is well
in the forest of falling leaves.
And should love overcome all
the souls will intertwine and become one.
And Autumn, Summer and Winter
shall visit the forest together.
