Voices In the Wind

Do you hear them in the dark sky; voices? 
Can you see them? They're in the moist cold wind.
It's pined and forced behind, on a whirlwind, 
Strong feverish passionate rant noises. 

Autumn leaves move violently beaten.
Dancing deaf, blind moving incoherent 
wave, tossing, not surrendering errant
storm; up, in, and under midair wheaten. 

Pedals follow upward like flaming tongues. 
My love, can you see them? A kiss it asks.
A thousand sums and more under the mask.
It asks, my love, you my love, firework comes. 

It takes the breath from our lungs; they mean no harm.
I need to be back into your open arms.
