Saudade = 1. a feeling of longing, melancholy, or nostalgia 

2. A yearning for happiness that has passed, or perhaps never existed


Scents from old and everlasting memories

Still linger in the autumn breeze


My mind crawls its way

To the shadows of the past

This season makes me thrive

With the good comes the bad


Saudade is my dearest friend

Much I marveled to escape alive

Now is my time to transcend


The author's comments:

A path towards self-love is to enjoy ones solitude from friends that no longer grow with you.  Pick your friends like how you pick your fruit.
