Rebirth

Falling leaves 

Whistling trees 

Sound of freedom 

In the cool 

morning breeze 

Letting go 
Of yesterday's sorrow 
Embracing hope; 
It's a new tomorrow 

Looking behind 

But forgetting the past 

Walking forward 

The last was the last 

Dead things fall 
Dead things lay 
Dead things won't follow
Dead things stay
