I sailed to this place in a newspaper boat
You came by pages from the author's note
Both of us barely afloat
We wandered through empty cities gone grey
Hidden skyscrapers of paper mache
Sunken and hollow-faced from the rain
I folded you into my arms
Once within, promised to keep you safe from the wind
That promise soon proved thin
As the walls began to shake
We were both afraid
The building groaned and the wind howled our names
The roof gave way
Bleeding debris
We cling to each other
And you began to sing
We live as leaves
Delicate and lovely paper things

So we tied our words to birds with strings
Helped them take wing from tall buildings

And sent them to both our families
But they never returned
So we folded ourselves into paper planes
And flew white-faced into the rain
And though it may mean
