No One


I have no one

No one has me

I am all alone

Stuck in a tree

The leaves are changing

The birds are singing

In comes new weather

That fall is bringing

I have no one

No one has me

I am all alone

Stuck in a tree

The people walk by

And sing their song.

 I have not seen them,

In so very, very long

I have no one

No one has me

I am all alone

Stuck in a tree

The insects crawl

They fester my home

I’m forced to leave

All about I roam

I have no one

No one has me

But the world has taken

My precious tree

Later on

I come back around

And my tree

Nowhere to be found

I cry and I cry

Til I stop

Realize that I

Was the one to chop

I hold my breathe

And count to ten

And then I start

To begin again

I have no one

No one has me

I am all alone

But I am free
