I Have Fallen

many people see me as a leaf but there much more to me then seen you see i see all i see the lovely couple who walk upon the rose bloom wall i see all the happiness and laughter as the children climb my home i see the worry and sadness from those without a home i see all but truth in this wicked world i see the hatred and the pain that show on these woman's faces for i am a leaf light empty and forgotten but though i have no attention i still see all i still remember each face that passed my home i still hear the children's laughter but today is the day i shall fall i know its coming but i am not afraid for i will remember you all someday for now i will lie peaceful in my grave and wish for happiness on those who cave i wish the best of my happy home but its time to leave and i wish i could stay but its not for me goodbye young children goodbye my friends and hello to the ground waiting for me i shall fall peacefully for the wind will catch me and i shall sleep peacefully because i am just a leaf
