Lost In Autumn Poem by Leah Ayliffe

Lost In Autumn

Rating: 5.0


You went missing in the autumn
where were you hiding?
I loved to call you
for you to come running

I used to think that you were lost
now I can see clear
I was alone at day
the sun had disappeared

It was a surprise,
that you got tangled in
my crippled lies,
my troubled lullabies

It got cold in mid December
I was still waiting
Though I stopped calling
I was anticipating

That soon you'd come for me
in the high of noontime
in sweet sunshine
take me back when we were divine

It was a game
I want to win
and with time, now,
I'm in love this spring

You have found me
In a different sleeve
Laying in another garden,
under another tree

You finally came back running
No longer troubled
broke free of something
climbed out of the rubble

Is it true,
should I say
that I've missed you so
should I say,

that my love
has never grown old
I want to stay by your side
in the morning sky

I want to stay with the soul that I lost in time.

This poem has some links to the earlier one I reviewed, for example, TAKE ME BACK TO WHEN WE WERE DIVINE echoes WE WERE DIVINE, but I'm not pointing out redundancy! This theme - All the gods and goddesses are within is the way Joseph Campbell expressed it - needs to be emphasized through repeated statements of it evoking different contexts. This is also a poem of Rescue, and you generously give the credit to the other person, but even a cursory reading of the poem shows both parties have accomplished this recovery of SOUL in tandem.
