Autumn

Autumn, you are the season about loss.
There is sadness as the leaves drop from your trees.
And I crunch them under my feet.
The sound,
reminding me of the breaking of hearts as relationships end.
Bareness of trees,
reminding me I'm getting older.
Another year coming to an end.
And winter approaches with her loneliness.
