Grown in filth
without love or nurture;
neglect rotted our roots deep below.
Growing pains
from swaying in great storms;
deceit drained our desire to flower.
Leaves wilted
while fungus clogged our veins;
we craved the caress of a rainbow.

caused my life to vanish
dulled my mind and left my soul despaired
your arms, like carved oak, protected me
whispered fears and deranged ideas
in the end you finally broke my heart
never hear you tell me you loved me
the soil soaked in my hurried hurt
it gleamed silver in the muted air
I always believed life would be fair
