Falling Leaves

As falling leaves hit the ground,

Without make the slightest sound,

I feel a sense of satisfaction,

When they float and reach their destination,

As they lay there so content,

I reflect on the time I’ve spent,

All the anger and hurt I’ve felt,

With great difficulty I have dealt,

With all the lies and all the tears,

I’ve scraped through all these years,

But as the leaves glisten in the sun,

I know that in the end they have won,

Because all the that they’ve had to face,

Now just seems like a wild goose chase,

And to them my heart I extend,

For their courage, for embracing their end,

Next time when I feel that life isn’t worthwhile,

I’ll think of the bold falling leaves and smile,

For I know the storm has already begun.

But in the end a stronger person I will become.
