I gave my hand, leaving it hanging
there like a bare branch
of unfulfilled swaying.
You just looked down at
it as if I were dead wood.
I was felled by your
ignorance, they say trees
make no noise when they fall.
I'd taken out the hillside of respect
for you when mine fell to my side.
Offered a branch
and you
felled it for your ignorance.
Never again shall I offer you an
extension, you'll fall alone
in the woods of regret
no branches to lean upon...
