❝It's ironic the way that you leave❞ ---౨ৎ --- To others this season is beautiful and comforting To you it is suffocating and lingering They aren’t afraid to let their leaves turn golden You are afraid to let others see you dying They trust the promise of spring But you… you are afraid to fall You are not the flame of auburn, scarlet, and gold You are like a subtle sigh, fleeting from an unhurried mouth Everything is fake with you The scents you leave behind and the yearning you feel You want what others have because they seem content But you are afraid of the change that comes with promise You are like Autumn in Florida Keeping the green of the Summer Until the chill of the coming Winter threatens to dry you out You thought you had a chance of beauty before you fell But you revealed your colors too late And by then you were already ready to leave ---౨ৎ --- Shout-out to Floridians who understand what this feels like :') ---౨ৎ --- Credits: - Poem written by me (please do not use anywhere other than scratch) - Photo from pin (not mine) - Song: This is what Autumn feels like by Jvke
