~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You are a tree, and each leaf is a thought, a word to describe how you are feeling. But there are too many leaves and fall has come and gone. So you stand looking to the sky and asking why you must feel so much. But if you look around, you will find there are many other trees with many more leaves. You must let go of the ache and place a gentle hand on your heavy heart. Take solace in how much you've grown. Remember you're not alone.
deep roots, strong branches
reaching upward and growing
take root as they do
