Outside my window
Leaves dance with the wind
A peaceful mourning
The world's weight rests within
Little leaf so brittle
Gentle breeze too strong
Fear away it carries
With its whispering love song
The wind like your love
The leaf, my heart
Embraced by the current
No matter how far apart
And try as I might
To sit out this dance
Staying grounded I cannot
Wanting only a second chance
A love less lost
Than found too late
Time and timing again
In agony, I will wait
