once Fredrich Nietzsche said "I notice that Autumn is more the season of the soul than of nature" while Fyodor Dostoevsky said "how gladly I watched the summer fade, the leaves turn yellow on the trees, and the grass dry out over the wide steppe! summer is gone at last! the winds of autumn howl and groan, the first snow falls in whirling flakes."

When seasons change
I get drunk on nostalgia and regret
More time wasted,
Another year without you.

your season falls into favour / blue sky turns cloudy grey / matching eyes, same disguise / leaves litter pavings like oils in a painting / and there, waving, is you / a lover of another mind / but still so kind / it's tricky not to tumble, head first, unrequited and unlearned / into you.

Every October it becomes important, no, necessary to see the leaves turning, to be surrounded by leaves turning;

After the keen still days of September, the October sun filled the world with mellow warmth...The maple tree in front of the doorstep burned like a gigantic red torch. The oaks along the roadway glowed yellow and bronze. The fields stretched like a carpet of jewels, emerald and topaz and garnet. Everywhere she walked the color shouted and sang around her...In October any wonderful unexpected thing might be possible.
Elizabeth George Speare, The Witch of Blackbird Pond

Autumn told me, "It's okay to fall." To me, autumn, you feel like home. Upon your arrival, I know that the days are going to be shorter and cold. It's time to take out the blankets, so snug, the sunshine now feels like a warm hug. The leaves turn auburn and detach themselves from the branches. The trees stand still, the weather is crisp, but there's comfort in this stillness. The autumn told me that it's okay to break, and fall. It's okay to detach. I like weather, gloomy and my coffee, hot. How about getting drunk on life, just one more shot. Autumn smells like nostalgia, a lost book in the shelf, childhood memories and friends. Everything is fading away like flowers and leaves, but beautifully. Autumn told me, that everything is going to be okay at the end.

> autumn air
i'll do something impulsive
'cause it's autumn,
and autumn makes me feel
like a little kid.
frigid air makes me
feel foolish
in the most fantastic way.
