Tired I grew,
like an old oak tree,
decaying away.
Roots turning weak,
branches reaching out,
perfect for setting on fire
to keep others warm.
So I started to grow away,
setting roots
into the ground
I built myself.
New branches twisted and turned,
blooming with bright green leaves
that no one
can reach.
can't see the wood for the trees
