you held me as if I were the world's first tree
and you were the very last leaf
whispering to me with breath from wind
"don't let me go,
I don't know how to fall alone."

Fall in love early, fall in love often.

Thanks alaboo. You never ever ever fail to read a poem. It's like you're magic.


I really appreciate it. I'm down right now.

This is incredible Paul.

And when you read it over again, it gains deeper meaning each time upon reading. Powerful.
