Did you forget your roots
Uprooted and replanted time and time again
-
A new relationship
Watered and sprouting buds,
It takes two to make this tree grow
-
Love in bloom
-
Today, there was not rain enough to satiate my thirst
You're carving initials foreign into my bark
And it hurts me to my core
-
Can't you see my branches flail?
-
Our rings of age split like a log
By an axe man deforesting what was an amazon
Into a burning bush...

Uprooted by the winds of change
Times are gone and people are strange
Mix and match
We rearrange
Dreams aren't real when we come of age
-
Turn me into paper and turn the page
