01 - Expired Love

She was greeted with solid black silhouettes of trees amongst a kaleidoscope of a sky

The enticing sun seemed to be kissing the heavens in a final goodbye

It washed the earth’s atmosphere with a hue unmatched by any other sunset

She stood at a standstill as if to wish the giver of light a tranquil and modest exit

Neither heard the echoes of the ghostly air nor the rustling of skittish critters

No sound or movement left food for thought

All that could be done was to sit back and honor the brightest star an amicable farewell

Without a tear nor a cry,

She gazed at the dusk and smiled while basking in the residual warmth from the once illuminated star

All she can do now is wait for its uncertain return

Clouds glaze over illuminating the once lively azure with a daunting shade

What a forgotten and broken atmosphere

Dancing leaves bring with them memories of what once was

The leaves waltz with the crisp air, enjoying the time they have left

Glancing at the vast wasteland cautioned the inevitable reality

It haunts her with its begging cry

The longer she endures the iciness, the more her body yearns for calefaction

She so wished to be encased in that loving embrace

“What a great deal this inhospitable darkness has taken from us creatures”
