summer isn't the only thing about to end

i tried to soften your fall
but without anything to catch you with
sympathies go out to my bones and heart
you still smell and look beautiful though
i wish you had time to hear that through and through

my love for you has collasped
lying under endless leafless trees
trees standing at the command of a frail sun

my love was upright and undaunted
but like boats at the mercy of their mother
they eventually float and wither away
no matter how strong the sailor

take all the gifts that mapped out my steps
words were never enough
neither were acts of love
this is it.
