waves crash over me
rinse the negativity
right out of my soul
-------------------------------------------
dying autumn leaves
bleeding against azure skies
gasp their last breath, fall
-------------------------------------------
permanent tear stains
line the face of the cheetah

snow coats the landscape
blanketing all that i see
winter wonderland

lightning rips the sky
tears it apart, angrily
slashing it in half
-------------------------------------------
fog slowly moves in
shrouds the world in mystery
hides it from my view
-------------------------------------------
amber colored eyes
peer out from under my bed
it's only the cat!
