Fall Feels, a poem and playlist

It's officially feeling more like fall in Tennessee, and I have broken out a multitude of blankets and cozy sweatshirts in celebration. This is the best time of year to binge-watch my favorite shows and movies, bake cookies, take long drives, and feel all the feels. I'm sure some of you can agree.

That being said, today I am giving you access to "fall things", my curated playlist for this season's drives through nature and lamenting over lost loves, or perhaps for both activities at once. I have also included one of my own creations, a poem personifying fall. Enjoy. Xx

Fall holds me by the throat

And kisses me like it is sinful.

She leaves me weak with longing for her

And her ever-evolving atmosphere.

Maybe she is kind to me, I don’t notice at all.

She makes me lose track of time

She makes me want to fall.

The least of my worries is when we will end,

Or when she will lose her intrigue

Because an affair so smooth can make you

give up your inhibitions

your morals

your innocence.

Fall made me new

In her cold air and her rustling leaves

But she is left unshaken by me.
