I am like the falling leaves

I am like the falling leaves
Rounding left and right
Spinning in the fickle breeze
Reaching for the light
The Voice of Silence speaks to me
Of incarnations passed
Of holy strength and mercy lost
Beneath deception iron-cast
You were of a different mold
The truth all you could see
Its cruel shadow scarred your soul
I thought, "Better you than me."
The truth is something
I could never bring myself to bear,
And all the things that made me free
Were never truly there
For I am like the falling leaves
Aimlessly in flight,
Herald of the coming freeze,
Fearful of the night
The Voice of Silence speaks to me
Of poisoned words and minds,
Of crystalline resistance,
Of bravery in binds,
Still, I am, like the falling leaves
When all is said and done.
Faithful in excess degrees
Adrift beneath the sun
