A Leaf

I'm a little leaf. I used to live on the tree, but one day, she kicked me out of my big family.

"I have too many children to breed. Forgive me, my dear."

"Nooooooo!" I wake up suddenly. Oh, is that nightmare again. Dizzy head always accompanies a sleepy leaf. I can still see her when I look up. The sky is blue, but she is not green anymore. When the wind blows, a lot of my siblings fall down, just like me, dislodging from my home. They first cry and scream, and then become quite with despair. Gravity pulls them down, just like me, cannot resist.

I cannot move. I will disappear in a few days.

These day, I feel I'm really thirsty, which make my muscles break down. I become crisp and dry like the potatoes chips which sell in the store. No one picks me up, because I'm not the potatoes chip, and I'm lying on the Earth.

The process doesn't sound that beautiful when you truly experience. One of my sister told me, you would be happy because you can feel the hug from the Earth, a warm, comfortable hug. My mom told me that Earth will eventually be my home and mother.

Lying, You gotta be used to this trick in order to feel better. However, I don't think that is helpful, and it even makes the situation worse. All of my dream are broken by the reality. I hate them, hate that sister and my mom.

At first, you are able to listen to others painful moans when someone step on us. Then, you cannot hear anything because the next one who moan is you.

Discomposing...

Here's a little story about a life of a leaf. The regular, ordinary, boring life he has. If you ask me if there's any theme behind this story, I will say: I white lie is still a lie. Please don't tell the while lies especially in serious situation because you will never know will that white lie harms the receiver more. Please don't decide for others since we all have our personal judgments.

Sorry, this is not a very nice story, but my writing skill is not awesome yet. I'm practicing.

Thank you.
