Lisa AT Biography

As I walk through the dancing leaves on the cold deserted street
I feel the crunches under my feet
In a flash my childhood springs to mind
I look ahead, to the side and behind
...

Thirty-six or so years ago, our paths collided,
And in that moment, my heart was decided.
I saw your smile, and I knew right then,
You were the one I'd love, my forever.
...

As autumn's palette starts to unfold,
Golden hues and crimson leaves take hold.
The sky is set aflame with pink and orange bright,
A cool crispness stirs, and day succumbs to night.
...

You wore a smile to mask the fray,
While colour slowly bled to gray.
To family, friends, and anyone near,
You spoke no word of hurt or fear.
...

You turned my garden to a field of flint,
A theatre of wars I never sought to wage.
I wore your shadows like a fingerprint,
And carried your silence like a heavy cage.
