Walking out of work today, I breathed the remainders of a memory. The fall is on it's way, pulling itself over us like a comforter. Painting all the leaves in playful shades. It's getting colder and the winds are getting stronger.
I thought back to a year ago and I'm so glad it's been long gone. I'm walking out of an old place and it's time now. For all the things I only ever imagined in the secret moments before slumber. When my barriers have fallen victim to sleep and only then am I able to wonder.
The things around the corner are no longer monsters. Just strange creatures draped in a curious cloak. That were shadows before I awoke and now I've finally begun to see all the possibilities. I'm not as scared as much as I am hesitant to be so naive. As to accept gifts from a harlequin.
How they shine. How they sparkle. Glamor me into tempestuous surrender. I'll take it now! I'll can't hold out. I want this thing. I'll pay the price. Oh, only if it could really be so nice.
