I have been searching

I am searching for it.

Searching the tracks in this secluded landscape

leading me down hidden paths.


I see the faces engraved from my past

And a family crest which confuses me,

How do I fit into it?

Standing around the corner

I see a tree in a barren landscape,

is it hiding or rising above the rest?

Do its roots hide the secrets?


I look up and see two paths.

One leads to a husk of a tree

Decaying and feeding the growth of the rest around it.


The other path

Is a wearisome one, but

I see thriving trees basking in the jubilant winter sun.


Maybe they hold what I have been searching for, or perhaps I will always be searching for it.
