Trees surround me in the dark forest Oh I am lost, please come find me There is no moon above the moss I rest It is damp and cold so steadily Visions are forming on the bark Oh I am lost, please come find me My heart is pounding in the dark The birds are not leading my way Visions are forming on the bark I am touched by branches, scars to stay Release me from this endless maze The birds are not leading the way Noisy trees crack and blow sideways I must find the way to be free Release me from this endless maze I will sleep with the flowers I see Trees surround me in the dark forest I must find my way to be free There is no moon, above the moss I rest Heidi Sands 9/30/17

Very well written Terzanelle--seems like a good place to get lost--but no moon and noisy trees could be troublesome--sun is on the way--best for a win!
