As true as the worthy leaf,
leaves its homely tree
nowhere to go
but to glide with liberty.
Speechless, lifeless
yet telling so many tales.
Breezing through its journey
open air, letting it pass
deep in flight.

^*~*^

As wrong as the leaf
falls from its branch,
crashing to the ground,
in a deadly form.
Taking only the role of a corpse
never letting its tale be told
or its actions to be sold.
Gently failing to take flight,
and becoming one of Autumns victims.

^*~*^

As true as I thought we were in love,
in a passionate, scented tale
hearing your echoing "I love you's"
and knowing that it would prevail.

^*~*^

As wrong as you didn't love me,
you scarred and broke my heart
telling your hidden lies,
whilst knowing we were apart.

This poem rocks!!  THe first two stanzas about the leaves were very well written, I was impressed by those alone, but the way you tied the last two stanzas into that was aweosme!  VERY well done!  Impressive indeed.  Nice work.  I REALLY enjoyed this.

I loved this!  The leaf was a great object to refer to.  And I loved the lines ^ there.  Great job!

I thought this was awesome. How you compared a dead leaf to your dead love.
I really liked this one.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Wonderful! There is only one thing that drove me close to insanity and that was how you changed the length of your stanzas. Maybe it's just me, but it seems to run better when they are all the same length.
Anyway, it was all good and you should be really happy with the finished result.
