leave the light growing and leave the sky falling. leave the reminders of leaving in autumn. leave the still flames and leave the burnt offerings. leave the long novels and leave the short memories. leave the sharp penknife and leave the dark windows. leave the wicks burning and leave the last traces growing and falling like summer's gold pollen. leave it all anyway -- leave it to die. leave the last pages, leave them forgotten. leave the last keychain and leave the last flower. leave the last plate and leave the last spoon. leave the last drug and leave the last river. leave the last clockface turning forever. leave the last words unspoken and sour. leave the last motion of the last hour. leave it all now and leave here with me. |

If we leave the candles burning then the whole world's goning to catch on fire. What about China? Have you seen the Great Wall? |

I totally agree. I'm not even "her" and I'd say "OKAY!!" You sound like a sweetie and such an offer is one in a million. Great job. Do songs on the radio sing to all the fools in love? |

Mike, you look like Tom Selleck (Magnum P.I.---not to be confused with PiP's own adorable Magnus P.I. lol) ~ and you write poetry! Oh, she'll be leaving with you, alright!--and if she doesn't ~ may I?   Linda |

Leave it up to your fate. And why leave anything, as long as you are secure in yourself? Good writing. |

Thanks, everyone. The only thing I'm secure in is my writing. |
