And the ground embraces, when the leaf fell.

The tree weeps.
The wind rejoice;
and the ground embraces,
when the leaf fell.

Enjoying the newfound freedom,
away from the binding old tree.
Withering slowly
as the days goes by.

Never did it realised
That the ground was never an easy place.
The risk getting sweep away by the wind,
dying from malnutrition.

And getting stranded all alone in the middle of nowhere.

But you said it's beautiful,
to fall with grace
and arise from the chaos.
To know misery so you may rise above it all.

So you went away
to know freedom
to truly know what the world is.

I let you go.
To let you know what it feels like to lose.
But yet you returned
Telling me the world is too much to take.

But darlin' did you know ?
You said that I was like the tree
Chaining you up in misery,
killing you slowly with restrictions.

Oh and how can I forget?
That you said it was all my fault;
you lost your freedom.

And now you want back.
But baby, you belong to the ground now.
No longer with the tree.
Can't you see?

It is all so clear now,
that what you sow starts from the ground
growing into a tree
And eventually harvesting as the leaves.

Now do you understand?
That you're what you sow.
