Challenges

These Branches are Aged,
And with each root felt of rage.
This tree's path has been paved and 
its up to it to make a change.
Feelings felt strange,
Wake up one day and this tree is 
not the same,
All its colors have changed, and its 
leaves fell off from the rain,
Now stripped from its beauty and 
then taken for its pride,
This lonely tree will be lucky to 
survive.
