Under the big overlapping leaves
<br>I looked up sideways at the sky
<br>My hands were still too small to grasp anything
<br>But I used them to weave together the white clover
<br>
<br>You worriedly see me off 
<br>Saying I'm not as strong as I think I am...
<br>
<br>I spread my arms like branches
<br>That will bear fruit in autumn
<br>I meet a new wind, laughing through my tears as I wander
<br>I'll find what's most important to me
<br>So just watch me from there
<br>
<br>I can understand a little how you felt
<br>That day you gathered your things and made to leave
<br>The more important things I have
<br>The more this love I can't relinquish hurts
<br>
<br>The morning we parted, you held out
<br>A familiar bottle of cold medicine
<br>
<br>I can fly like that bird
<br>Playing in the large branches
<br>So I squared my shoulders and decided
<br>To set out on a journey to find the reason I was raised here
<br>I won't forget the warm hands that gave me a push
<br>So please stay well...
<br>
<br>Desiring and being desired in the midst of kindness
<br>I'll live my own way, so don't worry
<br>
<br>I'll wait under the branches
<br>That bear fruit in autumn
<br>With a guileless smile, you call me by name
<br>I realized that someday I want to send you this happiness
<br>With unconditional love...thank you...
