Click hereA day faded but not cold
at the end of summer
a day as if
without the patience to sustain day
and only on an outburst
or an impetus
void
of duty, but full of irony
brings light to a day, in the end
like me
or like my heart
at the end of summer
a heart that's void
not of impetus
but of seeking, in the end
a heart faded but not cold

----------
An interesting metaphor, the heart's feelings as lacking in fire as the autumnal equinox; imparting a sense of uselessness, almost despair.
