Hail Mary - Leaf/Leave

You lost me in each tree leaf
I'm peering down through a bough and listening
My god, I thought I saw you unmoving there
But you were glistening
You've lain down, outstretched across the grass and grooming the dirt around you
It's like I caught you in bloom, you look so happy, so light and new
Every time I matched your eyes, the weight would bury into my chest
Some deep down, some quiet space
That's how you left me, that's how you left
In truth, you parsed past my thoughts
I'm thinking maybe you meant all that
All cross-eyed, can't see the place where you were laying
I take it back. In each root and every sunspot
I feel your name sprawled on everything
Come spring I won't know this place
Neither will any leaf know of me
