The Leaf
I saw a leaf blown by the wind
It kept flying for minutes up high
I wanted for it to land on the ground somewhere
But it just stayed in the air, like a bird in the sky
Then the leaf flew in my direction
I couldn't help but try to catch it
But it flew higher and higher
Until I couldn't see it anymore
I imagine immediately if love was like that
You see it coming, but you just can't have
How painful it is, how sad I will be
When love so near, in a flash is gone
I wonder still If I will ever catch that one leaf
Just like love, I want to own it one day
If I have to wait a thousand years for love to pass by me
I find ways to survive that long to have love in my life
I keep wondering if I deserve a love at all
If I know how to handle, how to take care of
My heart is as open as the sky, as wide as the ocean
But it seems I don't deserve someone to call my own
Life is like that, I have to be patient all the time
There's always a set time for everything, it's God's time
Someday that someone will come, and my arms are open wide to welcome
I will never let go of that someone then, and let forever bind us together
