Won't Let Go

Autumn comes and you decide to
Come to me as I continue to flow;
The chill and the air befriend you,
As I unsuccessfully try to wait, try to go slow.

I envy the tree which bears you all the time
The tree is there to stay;
I wish time went static, once if at all
Then I could have you, for once have my way.

But as I contemplate, I mock the tree
It only sees you smile;
I share your sorrow as I lose myself
When we go together, go that extra mile.

I lose myself, I merge into
The greedy ocean does have no complaint;
You don't care, neither seem to
Thousand miles !!! Things really do get faint.

The spring sun shines as you smile back
From the tree I used to know
You are back with the tree, in all glory
As I wish I had not let you go....
