Poetry

Like a tree

I spread out my roots in so many directions, trying to connect to so many others that some paths become messy as they go on, and some just die off.

Some roots are strong, and I feel they will be around for a lifetime, and the memories will go on forever.

But, some paths are still growing, and I’m still learning from these life lessons, and the ending is quite unclear.

And I know these roots will keep seeking until they have nothing left to reach.
