Guess you were the biggest thing ever alive on earth

Guess you were the biggest life
supporter On earth

You never wanted to fall

You never wanted to embrace the earth

You stood strong very strong indeed

To never let the mankind fall

Your massive cluster of roots

Shows your greatest dynasty you ruled

With kindness , love and unity.

Not even in your dreams

You would have guessed

You would be made to fall

By your own little kids

Whom you fed the intangible spinach

Just to make them breathe

Just - to make them breathe

As they say it's just a breathe

You nurture them everyday

With your benign breeze

Fools are they to forget that

You gave them this life

And they could be alive

Only until your kind were alive

How would they know who you are ?

You have crossed centuries

For they are just

A mere survivor of some decades

Your life is a sacrifice

A word ahead of humanity

To see you dead kissing the ground

This Would be the worst memory I would take with me to my coffin

This would be your line of thoughts

You would say

I was cursed by my callous neighbour

The very road i stood guarding with my shade

He wanted to extend his empire wide across my hut

Stupid road he killed me

You would still trust your child

Little humankind

You would never get sick of serving them

Even after your nerves are cut

Your trunks are made to chunks

Branches made to twigs

You would go sit with them

Guard them with your dead chagrin

In their so called wood house

You would keep them warm

You would call yourself a lounge

To let your kids rest embracing your soul

I'm surprised

Will you ever stop sticking

To those reckless idiots?

Well I'm one of them

We kill you to comfort ourselves

Such a selfless creature are we

Why do you care ?

We Would never stop hurting you

Unless you decide to pull off our oxygen masks

Why do you still want us ?

We are the biggest enemies to your kind.

Your majestic sight used to make my day

Everyday as I crossed this road

Watching your beauty

Listening to your rustles

Now you lie uprooted

Staring at me still

Where do I go to see you again ?

Where do I get your shadow again?

You gave me the peaceful memories

That I would cherish until I perished

I just want to give you a hug

And Smell your soul

For one last time

For your unconditional love

Your gratitude

Your life helped us live

Refreshed our minds

Kept us alive with brimming thoughts

To kill you one day

Saints are we you would say.

Stuck up by tears

I end it here

Long live us

As you bless.
