It's this tree,
you see.
A thousand words.
Thousand leaves.
For each autumn word said-
word by word,
leaf by leaf
falls.
And they all fall.
Every spring they are born again.
But this spring the tree started dying.
It's branches were no longer green and full of life.
It's roots were pulling the ground just to stay alive.
It was fighting so hard to be beautiful again, to be normal.
But it wasn't.
It was seeing it's end
and it gave the last leaf to the wind.
The wind hugged the leaf and it flew away.
The root was still there but the tree was forgotten.
Your tree isn't burned
it was never lit.
Its soul still lives
with the memory of it.
