sometimes i wonder
how the trees must feel.
when the season arrives
and they lose every single leaf
they\'ve grown to know.
and every single leaf
they\'ve grown to love.
and they suffer loss.
time and time again.
and they crack open and whither
they must weep.
surely they weep.
because how can one lose all it knows
and not shed a single tear.
so sometimes i sit back and i wonder
what the trees must feel
