September Skies

Under September skies
Two shades of grey walked side by side
Turning darkness to gold

Under September skies
Two worlds would collide
And with warmth, kept out the cold.

On the edge, one said, of something big
But see, there wasn't room to grow
On the edge, one said, of something great
In a world where all is unknown

Would have fallen off the earth
With just one more step in the wrong direction
As one stepped back with a heavy heart
The other leapt for their own protection

With a blow to the heart, the girl of grey saw stars
But she's been down this road before
She'll fall behind and through the cracks
Of friends she did adore
