It's Looming Again

The gray cold sky blankets the horizon and the precipitation falls. I look out the the plate glass out onto the blacktop lot below. I suddenly feel drowsy at the sight.  Not like I can normally keep myself awake normally, I have to deal with the depressing view of the early autumn weather. Noticed is that the leaves green color on a nearby tree has almost all given away presenting me with its new pale amber color. A pretty color, but one disguising a horrible truth.

Ah, how I long for those late spring cherry blossoms filling the trees and my eyes with a sign saying The warmth that you desire is almost here. The message that these leaves leaves now send is just as clear.

I shake off the sinking feeling of the last few minutes with with new resolve that whatever happens I will make it through the winter. Yes, adjustment may be made, but I need to push forward through this and I will defeat it. I will not let it rule over me. This time around, I have allies against this darkness.
