trees don't always grow
tall and strong
sometimes they grow skinny
cause it takes too long.
there's never enough
space at the bottom
so it's a race to the
top, and then it's just
a year or two until
it's time to chop.
All of a sudden it's
acres of land, looks
like a beach without
water or sand.
No use crying over it,
it's already done
but it's also hard to
say "it's time to have
fun"
because when there's
something eating
you at the back of your
brain, chances
are it'll leave a tear
stain
in the middle of
a thought,
and you'll just be caught
in a big ***** field
after the big chop.
