(i) The maple leaf flew
away on the wings of wind
It didn't have time to tremble
before it fell on the ground
littered with dead leaves.
(ii) The clouds hide the sky
from human eyes
but it is still there
behind the curtain of sorrow
trying to weep
for a heart murdered
and for a hope stabbed.
(iii) The mountains echoed my grief
I climbed up to find bliss
in their steep rise
to the apex where joy grows
from a touch of the sky.
(iv) The petals fall one by one
The ground is hungry for more
I close my eyes
The mirror reflects my face too clear
Oh, I'm growing old.
(v) I sit beneath the night sky
Looking up for hope
in a million stars
as they face the darkness
shining and smiling.
