This is one from previous work of mine... I just transferred it.
So gentle, and so good
Like trees we set our root
Giving all we have to the rest
We give our all until there's nothing left
Living through the cold just awaiting warmth
When there's a fire just north
Like plants, life has weeds
Thinking they know our needs
But they merely make us weak
Making us suffer until we can't speak
Life is more than metaphor of plants
Its about saying that we can, not that we can't
Bad choices we can not correct
The future is the bandage
And strive for the scar to heal
Make life about the scar that sealed
