The Fall

By: Ashley Geditz




I met a boy in the summer heat
His emerald eyes could not be beat

He told me he loved me in the fall
I then began to build my walls

He played it like it was all in jest
Which put my quaking nerves to rest

But his face of stone in winter sting
Did cause my trembling hands to wring

He told me he loved me in the fall
Those words now haunt me most of all
