leaf me not.

Leaf Me Not. by shannon.

a prince falls in a summer day,
abrupt and hasty and without grace.

plucked by the billowing western winds
dethroned and exiled and betrayed.

spiralling he falls to the ground,
where he rests without a sound.

the fallen prince wizen through disgrace,
from green to yellow than to brown.

the merciful heaven decries the loss,
but shine the sun high and aloft.

silent he be, muted be not,
the determined king shall take the sword.

the ground breaks when he moves,
a burgeoning kingdom he ensues.

skywards his kingdom grows,
Children and subjects be in troves.

a love for all in his sanctuary.
leaf me not. leaf me not.

ps. i believe happiness comes to those who seek it. Dwelling in the past will only inhibit your growth. i have learnt my lesson. Its times like these i am at my "weariest". It's a painful process but for all its worth, it helps you to know yourself better.

Time alone cannot healed all wounds. Only love and faith will see us through. Take heart in knowing that we are not alone, as countless others have taken the same route. Be strong, be brave and face the world, pleasant surprises may be installed. This is what i believe to be.

Make new memories for what our life is worth, else life stops and what then what will be its worth?

"love or die" a strong stance, but, hey, what else is there if you do not move on?
