Gnarled and dry roughly thrusting outwards
Play umbilical chords
Lifeless detached not rooted
Strangled by mother’s nature force
My unstrummed brothers gave me life
Gnarled and dry roughly thrusting outwards
Smothered by the chord that bound them
She severed herself from the tree
Lifeless detached not rooted
Dead roots. Dead weight.
Not connected to this earth
Gnarled and dry roughly thrusting outwards
Shrivelled with memories of love
Some notes die so others may live
Lifeless detached not rooted
Just a girl
Brought life by boys who died?
Gnarled and dry roughly thrusting outwards
Lifeless detached not rooted
