"I can only
dream of being as free as swaying branches.
Only wish to be as flexible as blowing leaves."
I would eliminate the period and make it a comma, and lowercase the "o". The last sentence is fragmented :)
Also: "but no matter where I go, no matter I see-"
I think you're missing something.. no matter "what" I see maybe?
I love your fourth stanza, how you have the pieces in parenthesis; it felt very effective to me here. I also love the vivid imagery of the second stanza, particularly the branches. What a beautiful, "freeing" picture.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE your ending.. oh my goodness.. again with the images but then that gut wrenching feeling. You've back so many emotions here in this last stanza alone, bwaah. I just love it. This is really a beautiful poem.
