The Eve
She steps through the portal
 into a morphing summer;
 shades of green to amber uproar;
 wind cuts leaves;
 burned as they turn
 like shadows casted
 by time.
  
 Each stride
 she shatters
 a lumbered tree’s skin,
 as a grayscale consumes
 entirety;
 encasing her temper,
 preparing for December.
  
 The black-feathered crow
 stalks from a
 limb,
 waiting for dusk
 to suffocate
 her figure.
 
 But her garnet heart 
 is willing to survive 
 as she glides side by side
 with cool air and dark sky.
 She lets herself slip,
 becoming one with it all,
 becoming one with the fall.
