An Autumn Night.

As I walk on the carpet of fallen leaves

on a rainy autumn night, I feel your hand brush

against mine as if you're walking with me.

As the nippy breeze caresses me

I feel that you stroked my hair with a

 smile on your face.

As I hear the sweet sound of wind

it feels like you whispering in my ears

a sweet nothing.

I get a spring in my step and It feels

as if the stars are shining from the newly washed sky

for us to dance in tandem with the wind.

 I take you in my arms, and the world spins around us

I can hear a melody, I can hear the stars cheering us on.

and I kiss your sweet tender lips

and it is a dark autumn night.

My lonely Apartment.

 The sunshine plays hide and seek with my window's curtains,

 The autumn breeze sneaks in through the open doors.

 The rain drops line up against the glass panels to peek in.....

Sometimes I wait for them to turn up and interrupt my conversation with the ever present silence of the walls.

Sometimes the dripping tap of kitchen calls me,

Sometimes the fridge shudders to attract my attention.

The light blinks a couple of times to break the monotony of quiet.

Sometimes the doors move slightly ajar to declare their presence.

As the noises from the outside permeate the still air of my home.

My Mirror complains of loneliness as its tired of being mates with my reflection.

The pillows can't fight anymore, lying next to each other in stillness.

The sheets missing the embrace of two.

My solitude  recently told me that its feeling blue,

And, I wonder aloud, how many more winters I'd have to spend

before my window, my mirror, my doors, my pillow and this home

has you.
