The stars came down
and cut the limbs off the trees
of the forest where we want to be
I can't be sure
but it seems we all know
that it's time to leave
how can you breathe
we were suppose to be together forever

October
I only felt autumn's presence
In October, in Hamburg
A month after she was expected

a bundled breath
of fresh joy,
and borne in the wonder

and I, my Child,

And now, that is all you are,
and still so much more.
