The Oak Tree


The intuition of a dark place
Trapped in a soul of an old oak tree
Giving life to be reborn
As a young apple tree awaiting
Maturity for a chance to give life

Apples are the fruit of ignorance
Souls ignorant to everything around
Born slowly rotting with destructive knowledge
Until that one point where the soul
Is yours again and you become
An old oak tree standing tall
In a cemetery of life
