I’m going to start sharing my poems 💫
I keep them to myself but that’s not very brave : )

Sundown
Perfumes of summer vanquished
Evenings grow colder
I watch the Autumn leaves
Ascend to great beauty as they die
Walking over multitudes of multicolored bodies
On this bright and silent afternoon
Suddenly I run into Sundown
That bitch always gets me down
In her dark unhappy dress
Throwing the day out with the trash
As if it never existed
I will not let her win
I will not throw away this day
I will keep it safe in a poem
And defeat Sundown once and for all
