when the clatter of everyone on the bus drenched in sweat and sighs weighed down with longing fade into the distance in which you came from

when the stars blur when you take off your scratched glasses in which you see the gray world with

when your aching limbs beg for clean air and wind and freedom and disappearing into the starry scar lined sky

you blow away like the autumn leaves

away

away from the lopsided streets when the numbness threatens to drown you, sometimes

away from keeping up the starry scarlined facades you paint on your mask

away from her away from him away from it away from everyone anyone everything anything

away into the spiraling cherry void of awayness

until you get washed away into indigo abluvions coated with autumn suns bleeding orange and blue into the october sky

oh autumn girl

you blow away like the autumn leaves

oh autumn girl

as you blow away my heart grieves
