I detach from the arm that held me into yours,
lightweight,
lifeless,
swinging to float across space
till you caught me
back and forth,
left to right
our cha cha the dream of lovers
in melodies unheard
dancing to the rhythm of now
in the spirit of freedom.
So let it be known
that before I touch the ground that would soon tame me
I met you
I, a leaf,
you, my wind.
