Leaves

I fell for you like leaves in autumn,

Knowing it is time to let go of the tree and float on the breeze.

I fell like the colors of fire,

Allowing myself to be carried on the wind of your sigh

The gentle flutter of your eyelashes a butterfly effect

Shaking my sturdy roots until I am quaking on my branches.
