Poem: In The Trees
I was a tree you carved
Your name into me
I stood there tall
To remind you of
Who you are and you
Always came back to me
I was the only mirror
That would reveal
Even what you were
Afraid to see I was
The only honesty
In your entire life
You killed me
Eventually
You could not bide
The things I revealed
To you so you murdered
Me I lived on in your memory
Nowhere else now no one else will
Ever know me no one else
Will ever see the things you fear
To show so know only
You have won you should be
Proud only we both know
That in the end we will both
Suffer for all the many things
You fear to say out loud.
