When I close my eyes
Did I expect to see
The forest of my life
In amongst the trees
I wasted so much time
Searching for a meaning
Measuring my life
By counting up the rings
I am growing old
Longing for relief
With every second's pass
Like turning of the leaves
Listless I lay down
Buried underneath
The softened sod and breeze
Forever more to sleep
Branches touch the sky
Roots spread underneath
And hold me in my place
Despite the winter sleep
Everything will change
Like winter into spring
Nothing can remain
Just add another ring
