The leaves scatter like whispers,
Barren branches offer no comfort,
Smiling through autumn winds;I left my youth in a fading dream.
I never feared the lonely paths;
Tears and regrets, like frost and shadow.My heart blazes while the sky mourns,
The winds of yesterday carve my soul.
My wings, shattered and scarred,
Yet still, I ache to fly...I'll chase the fading autumn light,
Memories wither but shape my heart.
With the cold flame of this autumn night,
I'll sing to the emptiness where love once lived.Walking on fallen leaves, I know-
This love was never meant to bloom.
Still, I carry it, undying,
As life and death dance in my dreams.The isolation of loving in silence,
My pride crumbles like dying embers.
How much lingers, unspoken?My heart sinks in the mire of grief.
Who will know this quiet agony?
In the end, we are like autumn leaves,
Falling, returning to the earth.In this life or the next,
I'll remember, I'll heal,
But this ache will always be part of the song...
