Let’s leave like leaves
Blown by beautiful breezes
Into our internal selves
Without whimpering thoughts,
Caring not of cruel sticks
Nor rot agents at our landing
II
Holding hearts heal hellish
Thoughts toiled to thrash
And separate to enmity
So grace mine, let me grace yours
Together let’s sail and dance
To the whispers of the gossipy winds
III
If fear follows
Let love light too tight to blind it
We’ll brace it all
Even the thoughtfully planned fall
Of the heavens for us to rot
For we will be one, body and soul
