Departing From Bliss

I saw Happiness today.
Glinting off the
new autumn leaves this midday.
Catching some wind
down a long long highway.

Haunting Purple, daunting blue;
dooming in the sky ahead.
Sucking, sucking me in.

I saw the sunset
in my rearview mirror.
The final drop
of true illumination
burned out of my haggard candle.

Home has crept up on me.
Its air thick and dry,
It itches and and scratches.
