The Red Tree

Sometimes the day begins with nothing to look forward to
and things go from bad to worse
darkness overcomes you
Nobody understands
the world is a deaf machine
without sense or reason
Sometimes you wait Wait wait wait wait wait and wait
But nothing ever happens
then all your troubles come at once
wonderful things are passing you by
Terrible fates are inevitable
Sometimes you just don’t know what you are supposed to do
or Who you are meant to be
or where you are
and the day seems to end the way it began
But suddenly there it is right in front of you
Bright and vivid
Quietly waiting
just as you imagined it would be.
