Love is not an emotion for the weak,
To love, you must be strong like a tree.

You must have deep and steady roots,
To keep your β€œhead” in the clouds.

Your bark may fall off,
Leaving you exposed.

You may fall victim to the test of time,
And may tip, or whither.

Like a tree, love starts with one seed,
That grows more and more after time.

Our love is like a tree.
It has fallen in the wood.

No one to rescue it,
It is left there to die and rot.

It falls down in the wood and left,
It will be forgotten.

I have cut our tree, in our wood,
And walked the path leading west.

I leave for greener pastures,
and for a tree that will pass the test.
