With its branches outstretched, this tree shields you
Whilst holding floral bouquets and crystal morning dew
As its leaves harmonizes with the whistling breeze
You clutch onto your hollow heart and fall to your knees
A single molecule of oxygen struggles to enter
Your brain cruelly slides through your gallery of her
Unfortunately your eyes aren't able to emit crystals of sorrow
Flesh to patch your wounded heart, you long to borrow
The tips of your fingers feel regret for letting her slip away
Unable to have saved her, death consumed the light of day
Without her warmth, your emotions deliberately fade
You battle the feeling of numb before it comes to your aid
Your right hand scoops up dirt that's now a part of her
Your left hand grips onto the bark, not realizing the splinters
In the afterlife, her spirit may be wandering free
But her motherly love dwells in the image of this ever-growing tree
