Autumn's Looming Silhouette
It’s July, but my soul is already drifting to frost. I crave the autumn mist, the comforting nostalgia of old shows, and the quiet thrill of shedding a past version of myself with the falling leaves. It’s a beautifully melancholic season for reinvention, and I can't wait to emerge anew.
In July’s bright heat, my spirit stalls,
Yearning for frost, and the whisper of fall.
I crave the coziness, the early mist,
The Starbucks cups and the season's kiss.
Rewatching favorites in the amber glow,
Dressed in layers, waiting for snow.
I miss the rain’s soft, rhythmic dance,
A sweet, melancholic, sweet romance.
A comforting sadness that heals the soul,
As falling leaves remind me to let go.
With every drift, a piece of me clears,
Shedding the weight of the previous year's fears.
By winter's chill, I am paved anew,
Ready for growth and the changing view.
Stagnation scares me, the very same,
I love to evolve, to never be the same.
Oh, how I yearn for the winter's bite,
And the magic of fall's transforming light.
