It was a leaf that fell
Because it had missed winter
It is lonely to be
The last dry leaf on a tree
It was a raindrop that fell
After all snow became river
A drop of rain to the river
Is just snow born again
It was a goodbye I watched
Before the storm angered the sea
A name I kept unwhispered and shy
For the leaf had fallen
And the raindrop had become sea
