a poem about life, love and happiness

Whew.
The years pass before my eyes,
days dropping like leaves onto the sidewalk
to be carelessly blown away
or crunched beneath my feet.
Take care darling,
Take care.
You gotta give yourself a reason to love you,
you won't find it in nobody else.
So maybe you won't end up being
a woman to somebody's man.
Hand myself up to wholeness.
