leaves
the leaves they are falling
they fall here, and do damage there
those leaves that will fall,
they don't really care at all
but I see your shadow coming
hiding itself behind the trees
you are doing your best not to show me
that the sun is soon to leave
but for all of your kind heart
the grass holds me too close
and I won't choose to leave this clearing
til the roots give up their search
we are done before we started
but we started before we knew
that is how we defy logic
and fly before we flew
so in this way let us start it,
everyday afresh and new
without all of the knowledge
that we know before we grew
so together and apart then,
let this journey be undone
so wonderful then, the doing
of the sweet times that will come.
