Day after day, I stare into the vibrant leaves Fluttering around me Dearly, I wish I wish I didn't connect their veins to you, Seeing nothing but your scowling face I wish I didn't remember your endless anger, Gazing into the beauty those emerald ovals So fearlessly display But, of course, They're green, Like the finest, deepest of gems So when I see those leaves All around me, I can't help but think of you
