Autumn Leaves

The falling leaves drift by the window

Angelina watched a leave drift past her and bit her lower lip.

The autumn leaves of red and gold

It was fall, and the winter was approaching. She turned back to her studying, only to be caught with another leaf.

I see your lips, the summer kisses

A reminder of a simpler time, when there were no worries as to what N.E.W.T.S were comming, or what to do with her furture.

The sun-burned hands I used to hold

A reminder of the one that got away.

Since you went away the days grow long

She fiddled in her seat and turned her attention back to her book, but she was caught again by a movement in her peripheal vision.

And soon I'll hear old winter's song

She turned and saw another leaf. Another reminder that her life was floating away and she had no idea what she was going to do in the future.

But I miss you most of all my darling

For the moment, she would just watch the leaves fall.
