Now
Commentary:
Leave me now.
Leave me
before I melt,
before I dissapear
into a sigh,
before what's left
floats on the wind.
Leave me
so I can breathe in life,
so I can twist and turn,
and grow.
Leave me
before my years hang like
heavy pearl earrings, stained
and tarnished,
before I forget what it's like
to live...
Can you hear my whispers?
They're all around you
leave me

Very poignant.
