2006-07 Poems Before the fall,
The last waves of summers heat,
Rise in the aoutom wind.
Pushed away by the approaching fall air.
The man online on the hill,
Lost in thought.
Curled upon the rocks.
His chin on his knees,
Eyes glazed over in the fog of thought.
Winters gray hand looms overhead,
As the last colors of life swirl around,
Sourrounded in the rainbow of life.
But the boy is too lost in thought.
Dosen't notice the beauty all around.
Rocking back and forth,
Silently crying to himself.
All he sometimes wants,
Is to just be alone.
Cry to nature,
To all thats around.
The rain starts to fall,
The season sharing his pain.
He loves the rain.
The water drips down his face,
Though silent,
The tears no longer need to hide,
They intermingle with the water,
Pour down his face.
Wash away the depression,
Hides it from the locking world.
Fights it everyday,
No one would guess,
They don't care enough.
And his act is too good,
Hides it so well.
But on a day as gray as today,
It all bleeds through.
No longer cougt up in supression,
Depression takes its hold,
Depression takes its toll,
And he cries the pain away.
Cracks form in his hardened facade,
But his defences are always up.
Never lets them in.
Slowly wasting away,
As the rain washes it all away.
The gray gives way to night,
Snow falls in all around.
The boy sits alone,
Chilled down to his bone.
Freezing in the winter night,
Shivers alone on the stone.
The tears turn to ice.
Anger boils over,
The icy hands of hate.
Hates so many, so much.
Hates his life.
The hate gives him warmth,
Anger keeps him alive.
He won't freeze tonight.
The sun rises on a dark winters night.
Ignites the red mourning sky.
Death all around,
As light shines in the east.
The boys clothes stick to his side,
He realizes he's still alone.
As the anger and light,
breath into him life.
Dry once more,
He stares upon the fall.
His eyes glaze over in the fog of thought,
As the pain comes again.
He silently cries to himself,
For just another night.
