NEW AUTUMN

NEW AUTUMN

By: Rodolfo Perez

 

 

 

I just need to clear my mind now,

It’s been racing since the summer time.

I’ve been holding a cup for too long,

A once cold beverage is body temperature.

The music has stopped playing,

The summer is over.

The summer is over.

The summer has been over.

It’s on to the late nights without the party.

The quick meals without the conversation.

But there is someone who keeps me going.

She remains to celebrate the victories,

And comfort me in my defeats.

Suddenly autumn becomes my favorite season.
