Ode to Melancholy of Autumn

My soul is weary and
My mask has faded

Oh come, Melancholy
Make me feel everything
Or nothing at all

I fall in love with your greyish hue
I open my heart to your dreary aura

And welcome you in, Dark Mistress

Though I remain calm and steady
Your shadows will haunt me

But upon Helios' arrival,
You shall be swept rim to rim
Of your desolate existence

And I will faithfully await (again) for your return...
