autumn ambling
i could feel my hand starting to sweat
as it was intwined with yours
the crisp wind beating about vanished that worry of mine
it was so silent out
nothing but the wind, rustle of dry leaves, and an occasional whisper
the only light was of the few rays that managed to break through the canopy of leaves that were still on the trees
the rays of sunlight were scattered about the path
showing the worn out pavement littered with a bounty of colored leaves and the unchanging green in your eyes
my scarlet scarf blew behind me in the dominant wind
as my long jacket nipped at my ankles and the leaves crunched under my hefty boots
the wind picked up and i instantly moved so we were shoulder to shoulder
a tornado at leaves pranced around our feet
the path seemed never ending and i was happy of that fact
i looked up at you as you gazed down the winding path
you caught me looking and smiled
i wondered what was going on through your head
looking at the lofty trees looming above us
i blinked
our hands were apart
you were no where to be seen
had i just been dreaming?
i crossed my arms across my chest
with my scarlet scarf still dancing in the breeze
as i wondered what had just happened as i sauntered down the same path that was unchanging
like your eyes had been
