A Tree Falls

A tree falls…
Does it make a sound?
Or do all of its leaves…
Just disappear on the ground?
And when it falls,
Because fall it will…
Then why wasn’t the tree…
Standing still?
Was it because…
It felt weak?
Or maybe because…
It wasn’t unique?
Or could it be that
Poison just seeped?
And nobody heard
This lonely tree weep?
Since it’s lonely,
There is no one around…
Silently it will fall,
On to the ground
Leaving no mark and no stains…
No one to visit its rotting remains…
But little flowers grow…
Where it once fell
To remind you of all the
Secrets it can’t tell
It fell cuz people weren’t true…
But in the end… Just know
It forgives you.
