Lonely, Like The Leaves Poem by Thomas Case

Lonely, Like The Leaves

Rating: 4.9


The days crawl by like
tortoises.
My purpose is obscured by
vodka nights, and
raven-haired sadness.
Naked branches of
the maple trees dance in
the autumn wind, and
leaves rustle in
the dead grass;
all burnt orange and yellow ocher.
They're like a
little surreal sunrise.
Hope
is eternal.
