His is a heart gone cold
He gave with two hands
He greeted the sunrise with a smile
But you trammelled
You took
You tortured

Your arms around me?

Oh Autumn Skies
Embrace me in your leaf strewn forest floors
Clothe me with your canvas colours
Quench me with your dew-grass mornings
Hold me in your frosty hands
In the dying, an explosion of life
In the cold grey, an explosion of colour
In the fading day, a million rays of sunshine
That permeate my soul to the depths of my being
Reminding me that all things come to pass
That my summer
That my youth
Are fleeting too
Just like the leaves
That shine crimson red, yellow, and orange
If only for a moment
Only to fall and die
And scatter before me
Oh Autumn skies
Sing to me before I die
Cover me in a blaze of glory
Just like the leaves that have fallen
Before me
Say not a word
My love
As we lay down
And make love in silence
