Just like the leaves on a tree
You protected me from
This cruel world.
Just like those beautiful
Yellow flowers on the tree
My love bloomed for you.
Just like a canary on a tree
You made my life
Musical and cheerful.
You became the roots
That made me stand strong
Alive and beautiful.
From just being
A naked tree trunk filled with
sorrow and pain
You blessed me with life,
leaves and flowers.
But unexpectedly
Autumn came
Everything was blown off.
The leaves shed off me
Flowers fell off me
Birds stopped singing on top
of me.
Today I stand here stark naked
Just like a naked tree
Without its leaves and
flowers.
May I ask
Why must spring come
If autumn makes you shed it
all?
