Array ( [sid] => 137727 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Leaves fall [time] => 2007-10-08 09:41:24 [hometext] => [bodytext] => As the leaves fall to the ground
you look for the perfect one.
The one that flutters so serenely,
the one that floats with dignity,
the perfect shape, the perfect color

Then, you see it! Off in the distance
it tumbles, dancing beautifully on the air
you run to it, but can't make it in time.
Dig through those piles of leaves
find that perfect one.

It's there, I know it is
you mumble and grumble
as you fervently search.
Where did it go?
Was it just an illusion?

No! you scream to yourself
It was not fake! I saw it!
At last, you have it in your hand.
You feel its shape, you admire its beauty.
Just when you know it's yours, the wind blows.

Off the leaf tumbles, teasing you as it falls
Come and catch me, it taunts.
So you do. You run after it
and try to catch the love you once had.
It is there. You just have to fight. Never stop fighting.

So love is like a pile of leaves?

You can't catch love methinks...

Love is a graden (cliche)
Tend it and it remains
Leave it, it withers and remains
grows creepers and weeds
walls us in

love doesn't leave us
we leave love.

remember that, for it is truth
and truth is scarce these days

don't try to catch love
just love...

always, abraham

Agreed on we do leave, love. But we choose to take or leave it. Some love so much or hard, it hurts, so they give up then lose. If you want love bad enough, make it shown, some how or some way. If it takes forever then be it. Liked the write
