Autumn blew my thought's

By Ritika Kumari

How does it feel to be winter or fall
Why do we have to run ,with the seasons all along 
Why can't I stay cold if that's what I want 
Because if I ask you to trust me 
Don't lie I know you won't .

How long does it take to give it all away 
I know you didn't understand , but I just asked you to stay 
Is this all , that i'm meant for ? 
To always walk with your pace 
And if I ask you to leave me 
Maybe I don't have courage, but i'm not afraid .

I’ll stay in autumn if I want the wind 
I’ll stay in winter if I want to freeze my grin 
I’m still lost in summer and you want the spring
For your needs I go to places I’ve never been . 

I hope  I can stay as autumn ,  long as I want 
and I know I can build my fire, if the winter’s unknown 
I know you’ll never understand ,how spring sings the song 
 And we can’t make it happen , if we are all the way  along 
it’s not the end , why to balance on breaking branches 
let’s face the vicious truth and celebrate our own climate’s .

To watch the  golden brown leaves fall off the tree’s 
When you ask your questions and answers the wind 
Spring is always admirable but have you seen summer’s ocean grin 
You should try , that’s a different luxury
Where you’ve never been 
And that’s LIFE 
So think again , darling ……
