I’m awash in autumn tears <br />On a windswept city street; <br />I’ve been conversing with my fears <br />That I’ve collected like trinkets and souvenirs <br />Scattered across these lonely years. <br /> <br />I love you like an abandoned child <br />Who never finds his home. <br />I’ve staked my place <br />On the newspaper corners <br />Standing all alone. <br /> <br />One day, you will meet again <br />Your hollow, scarecrow friend <br />And on such a day you will understand <br />What your absence has done to me. <br /> <br />I can’t let go of this love <br />That never should have been.<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/autumn-tears/
