A firm believer of not looking for a hero but being one yourself

The leaves are green, now they are yellow, then they are red.
My soul was once whole but now where it lays there is a crater instead.
Gone like the wind but I am as sure as tomorrow;
My happiness lays contently in my midnight sorrows.

Looking back at the days when you were all I used to think about;

We are consumed with different priorities.

I feel so undone...
I try to find words to describe the way I feel but none seems to come.
