Have you ever
Thought
About how lonely
The tree must feel
Watching babies
Grow into men,
How painful it is
To have initials carved
Into its trunk
Every single day,
How sad it is
To keep getting older
Without accomplishing
Anything?

Tree
Have you ever
Thought
About how lonely
The tree must feel
Watching babies
Grow into men,
How painful it is
To have initials carved
Into its trunk
Every single day,
How sad it is
To keep getting older
Without accomplishing
Anything?
