Remedy / Autumn Breeze

Remedy: a poem of adolescence

By Kaitlyn Tiffany

She is controlled by demons

That tell her she is no good,

Without any reasons

She is left scared of adulthood

For a moment,

She can feel sweet relief

By escaping the torment

Amongst piles of autumn leaves

But soon this bliss will fade away

Visions become hazy, like when on a carousel

And she will remember what those demons used to say

While under winter’s frozen spell

Nature becomes a sanctuary

When their voices drown out the melody

If only she knew that her fears were imaginary,

She would be able to find a remedy
