My roots
My roots are from a giant tree The familiar old family I stood above as the highest branch Let the timber hold my weight I waited and still wait To that day When I have a say But I am dependent Till the branches holding me Became redundant It's time for a free fall A free new life Yet I am afraid Cause it's new And very few Roots hold me now Trembling here I fall No time to stall I fell sharply to the ground As the weeks goes around Tender leaves surround The sun smiled widely "You have become wise Your fall was precise" And all of the doubt washed away by the rain With no pain there is no gain.
