early creative writing

(as I sort through boxes of 'stuff' I continue to run across creative writing efforts from my junior and senior high school years. Some of it isn't bad. I posted it here with out correcting spelling errors).

fallin fall leaves
along a country road
the trees are black
burned out shadows of
beautiful things once there.

the road ahead is hazy for
this part of the woods,
the smoke of an unforgetable past still lingers here.

the water bubbles past
(as though it's) trying to clear away
old memories
to make room for the new happiness
soon to be sought in this
small corner of the world.

You came and brought warmth,
When you left,
It turned cold.

i'm looking at it, now it shall never be the same,
i'll erase it, scribble on it,
scrawl over it,
reshape it,
make it something special to me.

the two of 'em sitting side by side
one could be a shadow of the other
shiny, is one, reflecting
the other, dull, with two rings 'round it and
darker streaks going down
one forward, the other back alittle,
almost shadows of each other.
