    "The Leaf"

    Have you ever seen a leaf
    as pale as death
    gliding down a tree
    ever so slowly

    as if
    it wants to
    feel the cold morning breeze
    or if
    it wants the time to freeze

    branches scream
    owls howl
    birds chirp
    ...in horror

    as it is on its way
    on the last journey

    soon it wd be squashed
    under the feet
    burnt...
    with the trash
    or rot
    in the monsoon rain

    or maybe
    would be picked by a boy
    and kept in a book
    for years to come

    My dear leaf
    fall ever so slowly
    as you dont know
    where your journey ends

    on a street
    turned to ashes
    mixed with dirt
    or....
    within the pages of my life
