It was about you

in #poem7 years ago

It was about you,
you and no one else,

Without the wind
there are no moving leaves.

No one else only you,
deep in the ground

The roots of one tree
without all the limbs
and even Still yet,
high in the air is the crown.
but you can and only you will know
where you've been or
what you have felt or still even yet,

What's there in your heart
because if you tell again
You will be where you were.
In spite of all you have seen
and even now, goes on

Around you,

You will not tell because
if you do again without will

And your young age,
the pain you endured
the long lonely night's
Will come once again
but child know you were right.

It was about you that
I fought the long fight,
despite what you thought
I was always there,

The voice that you heard
when you were there it was mine.

My advice at your young age
may not feel right,
the words that you hear
those words that you heard,
But in the coming years
I think you will know,
the words that I spoke

We're only for you.
Because at your age
even younger still it was me in your place,

At this, our tender young age,
because to another you weren't important. Ten year's have now passed
and even now, it was done for you.
