Waking from an old familiar dream state
That same old dream - me seeking you
In vain, through obscuring clouds, sky, wind
A fallen leaf caught
In the eddies of
The careless wind
Fluttering - now here, now there
Now in helpless circles
Will I ever know if you and I belong
Did we ever belong
You and I, to each other
She asks the tree
How long will this longing last
Why did you discard me
She demands
Of the tree, so silent, aloof
Do you and I mean anything
To each other -
Did we, ever mean anything
To each other -
The leaf flutters
Restlessly, tirelessly
It seems, aimlessly
The tree, lofty, aloof
His branches, bare
Has no answer
