Syd

Did you know that it is possible for all of the limbs of a tree

to be burnt off,

and even as all of the limbs are charred, the trunk of the tree continues to live?

 

Do you ever wonder what it would be like

to have so many parts of you die,

but your core still alive?

 

I wonder if I already know how that feels.

 

Because sometimes I swear I can feel

the sky bend, 

I can feel every muscle in my body ache

on days where I beg myself to just stay in bed.

 

To just be okay, for once.

 

Would my limbs grow back?

Would I be reborn if I rid myself of

all of my dead parts?
