Veiled in anonymity,

hidden from the world to see,

living out my life I’m never known.

 

Feeling that I don’t belong;

you all sing a different song,

quietly I slip on by unseen.

 

As the moon its teardrops cry,

each a star lights up the sky,

as it hears my heartbreak every night.

 

One day though I will belong,

you will hear my siren’s song,

ring throughout the universe unbound.

 

Until then I’m here to stay,

writing with my words I play,

poets sybarite will haunt my heart.

Sophy, centre, in Autumn Leaves. Alice Gray is...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Amber autumn,

carpets the ground,

teardrop leaves,

fluttering down.

Her beauty has faded,

her season is gone,

the harshness reflected,

in the cold winter sun.

Summer swifts sing,

their final love song,

as they take to the wing,

they no longer belong.

She weeps tears of petals,

as her dreams decompose,

her lover has left her,

to winter’s repose.
