I watched you sow
Seeds of resentment
Before my very eyes
I couldn't move
To dig them up
I was needed in the skies
Years gone by
Forgetful I
Did not remember about seeds
Our forest suffered
All this time
I catered other needs
And now your tree of hate stands tall
Thorned vines I could not tame
And it bears a poison fruit
Venom, nectar
All the same
Why does it keep on growing?
I told sun not to shine
And cloud who watered it so proudly
Did not pass by this time
I took an ax to trunk
But bark was made of tempered steel
I took a torch to branches dry
But flame it would not feel
Roots gripped earth
Vines entwined
As it saw I found
The rivet line
I pulled the thread
Straight through the seams
And released the nightmare
From our dreams
Our forest is now happy
And it's creatures feel the same
But are you gone?
Should I be worried
The next time skies call out my name?
