Fallen Branches
A cool breeze blows upon my neck
Laughter fills the air
Bright stars above me
Embedded roots below me
No one here beside me
Reaching out for no one
Talking to myself
Laughing at my humor
Holding onto air
Inhaling emptiness
Exhaling loneliness
Cloudless skies above me
Whispering leaves below me
No shadow beside me
No shoulder to cry on
No one to catch my tears
Listening to the silence
Inhaling stupidity
Exhaling regret
A million trees above me
Fallen branches below me
No one here beside me.
