For whatever the reason may be

I seem to have lost the ability to see

Everything around me is anything but bright

It’s dead black, like the middle of the night

These new dark ages that I’m in

Are probably the causes of a sin

What could I have possibly done, I wonder

That could have been counted as a blunder?

The night is forever here with me

Like a companion to hear my plea

An actual friend should be my guide

A real person should be by my side

I had a friend just a while before the darkness came

He was always there, but blast it! What was his name?

He was kind and always near by

Were all of his actions just a lie?

Now I remember

His name was November

He was so cool and smart

He had a really big heart

What happened to him, I wonder

Oh that’s right, He was torn asunder

The winter winds came and knocked him senseless

As soon as he hit the ground, he became breathless

He never got up again after that

His big heart squashed flat

Pieces of him in different places

His body cut to ribbons and laces

Winter kicked the ground with joy

For he had murdered the November boy

He turned to me and grinned smugly

His blue teeth were anything but ugly

‘You didn’t defend your friend’ he said with a smile

‘For that I will send you to a dark place for a while’

With the flip of his hand chilling air sliced my face

My eyes went dry and suddenly my lids shut like a case

Suddenly everything stopped

To my knees I dropped

Everything to me was dark

Winter had made his mark

My world had come to a halt

Of course it was my entire fault

That was my blunder, my biggest sin

I couldn’t save November from the gin

As the months flew by

All I wanted to do was cry

November was dead

It was my only dread

One day I felt a wisp air brush my hair

I turned around, still full of despair

I felt something gentle press against my eyes

Then I entered some kind of mental high

The coolness of the touch was delicious

I could tell that it wasn’t at all fictitious

As soon as it came the gentle press lifted

Suddenly the darkness around me rifted

I looked around to see autumn hanging around

There were gorgeous colored leaves on the ground

The air was soft and chilly, but comforting too

Taking the feeling in is all I wanted to do

I turned around to see him there

November as clear as autumn air

He stood there with a smile

He said, ‘It’s been a while’

My eyes softened at the sight of him

Seeing him smile made my head swim

My lips moved ‘How are you November?

I haven’t seen you since the first of December.’

He smiled at me again and said

‘Did you believe that I was dead?’

November walked over to me

And dropped to one knee

‘My dear, I could never leave you for long.

To do that would be very wrong.’

He pulled out a velvet box and opened it

Inside was a golden ring with a diamond bit

‘Marry me, please. So I won’t have to stay away

We can stay together forever and live by the day.’

His brown eyes were warm and sincere

Forever I would hold the memory dear

‘Yes, November, I’d love to marry you.’ I said

‘Alright,’ he picked me up, ‘but no more dread.’

We laughed together and smiled

Our adventure had been wild

For those days that I had been blind

I did learn things that are hard to find

Hold no regrets in this life you’ve been given

For only once can it be ridden

Oh my gosh! This took forever to write! Not only that but I started running out of rhymes. *coughrhymezonecough* anyway, as you can see it basically tells a story. Sorry if it drifted in places or if things didn’t fit together too well.
