I am a leaf
An autumn’s morning
In a windy and dusty
August
I am lonely
Lying on the floor letting my tears flow
As the wind blows
I am a leaf
I’ve been blown away
All my happiness and everything
It’s all gone
I have no need for love; love causes pain
I have my family
I am shielded by god
I am a leaf
