in my roots underground, bits of grief still remain lingering memories, replacing joy by pain in my roots underneath my silent cries grind and burn shaping my own defeat to the point of no return you are leaving me to cope with my scars ignoring me for what? |
|
I don't know former joy burnt down and decayed, all that might have been turned to hate dew washed away by the rain, acid bitterness eats me it burns a hole in my crust, seedlings of our trust won't grow no more leafless you left me as leaves fell down to earth naked |
|
I became when you left, lonely is the woods of my trunc where in the whirl of your thoughts was the reason anyway? |
|
Seasons nature's cure for my shame, in time my branches will grow again spring, winter's foe has arrived, blooming |
|
I once did... and will do again... what did |
|
I do wrong to lose your trust? the tree that's me was shook you turned your back and left, can't you see |
|
I was afraid of you and of that higher tree that took the sun away it all happened much too fast for me and what you didn't know: your tears were acid rain browning my green |
