Description
I never once though
This could happen to me

A hanging branch
On a semi-dead family tree.
I was the worthless apple
That had fallen.
Straight from my
Mother's wooden limb.
My father
Lets me leave.
Escape forever to the ground
Haunted by the hollow sound
Of a whispering wood.

He told me I was free
From growing up from the seed.
She told me I could be
Anything I wanted to be.

I guess seeing it now,
This wasn't how it was supposed to be.
'Cause I was young and too afraid
To be my own little sapling.
But the difference was made;
When I left,
The photosynthesis stopped
For a moment,
To reflect on another forgotten leaf.
