You walk down oak tree lined streets
where fallen leaves and broken dreams lay
disregarded in tear soaked gutters.
The crisp air blows against your skin
meeting chapped lips and flushed cheeks.
Tightening your scarf little by little
you wonder how it'd feel
to stop the rise and fall of your chest.
Leaves crunch under your feet
with each step you take
moving you closer to your destination.
The ground begins to shake
and the world begins to spin
suddenly the sun's fallen from the sky.
Surrounded by darkness you're lost
can't navigate this obstacle course
others choose to call life.
