The First


Autumn’s first leaf
drifted through the days melancholy
as if it were searching
for what wasn’t there
but should have been

Maybe it was the sun’s presence
that was missing
or the ground was too far
a fall
but something wasn’t right
something was missing

Autumn’s first leaf
floated through the cool air
like a lonely soul
searching for someone
just to talk to
someone who would listen
to a thought or a dream

Maybe it was you
that was missing
or maybe life was just too much
for me to walk alone
but once you have that first kiss
the last one
always leaves you searching
