Chlorophyll
Like the winter breeze
Greeting my body
I feel myself give in
To the leaves, falling
The ones that change color
And meet the ground rolling
Scarring themselves with feet that keep walking
The sky was filled with vibrance
Not because the sun rose or left
But because trees were letting go of their green
I found it a miracle
To live another season
Watching the same trees sleep
Have their leaves reflect against my eyes
But it’s ending now
Like my body
It’s shivering and wishing to sleep as well
If only I could be a tall, marvelous tree
Beautiful and towering against the clouds
Then I wouldn't have to feel this way
Like my very being amounts to nothing
My roots aren't strong
And these branches are almost naked now.
