Tree of Hearts
In my heart there lives a tree
A living breathing rooted sprout
Pumping fueling filled with the blood to live
A living veined vessel that is growing
The pain that this tree feels fallen to limb
Puzzled pieces of branches that fell
This tree of hearts that wants to rebuild
To mend and to mold trusting their will
Wasting the time that is valuable and could of been better spent
Gradually unfolding a screaming attempt
Moments to be or not to be heard
Listening to the mountain of pain engulfing our hurt
Grasping the rationality towards where to direct
The place where screaming at the mountains message will be sent
Center of a divide where my tree of hearts life memory of pain lies
Why scream at the mountain that is not where the fault is in line
A mountain screamed to is a lapse that distracts gravity
Raging in an outward action lashing in the wrong way
How can this reaction come from just a heartache?
Or is it just the mind that the hearts tree is hard to find
Bringing it back to life inside warm and fire to be kind
Bonding during times of missing the ones who could share
Daring to never scream at the mountain based for belief
That screaming at anyone never solves a thing
