Leave
Why must you, leave as the leaves
I love you, but leave you must
Forget us, leave our dead tree
We’re apart, like steel and rust
I watch as your train departs
Taking with it all our hearts
Enjoy your deliverance
Expense of all our grievance
There’s no hope for us right now
We will fade like distances
Like the sweat upon your brow
All our life mere instances
Today marks the day of death
Pity my last dying breath
This poem is about:
Me
