The icy mist envelopes the leaves
As they fall fall fall
Into the lap of an awaiting figure
A ghost to the world

The silence fills the words yet spoken
The frost bites the cords
“Yell!” It thinks
But silence is a void
Yet to unfold

The icy mist consumes itself
And everything inside
A hidden spot free from time,
Betrayal and joys in kind

Here in silence it can finally think
Reason with itself
Remember the pain, past and future goals
To embrace the bright future

Reaching out to grab the leaf
A ray hits the edge
Thaw thaw slowly back
Into itself

Close the eyes
To realize
The brightness of the world
Its joy, sorrow, mischief and more
Wrapped up in a little bow

“Topple over their conditions
And ****** upon the goals!”
It thinks
Defiance lighting its eyes
“If they can do it so can I”
It voices and it slinks into its light
