I wandered down that lonely
road
I follow every day
Littered with tears and cookie
crumbs
On the ground along the way.
I come to an old familiar bush
It whipped and cut me so
Why does this bush dislike
me?
I guess I'll never know.
I walk down the road some more
Come to an old black bird
It calls me names and spits
on me
I guess it's what I deserve.
Walking down the road again
Now my head hangs low
I happen upon an unfamiliar
tree
It tells me "stay, don't go..."
I look up with fear and uncertainty
But soon I am at ease
I smile up at you, the tree
And fall down on my knees.
I am weak from all the hatred
weak from all the pain
You extend your branch to
pick me up
And shelter me from the rain.
You hold me tight and hug me
Make me feel squishy inside
Gaining a smile and losing
my fear
I kissed you and I cried.
To stay with you forever
I had to become a tree
With my feet in the dirt as
roots
Together we will always be.
