The woods


 

Alone I travel into the night 
Not anyone or anything in sight
Wandering around like a flightless bird 
Speechless, not muttering a single word. 
I spit out my feelings, drowning them with my thoughts. 
My stomach is turning and filled with knots. 
No one dares listens or show me care, 
I keep on and on. They just leave me there. 
It’s hard for me to catch the attention of the woods. 
It’s so easy for them, I was misunderstood. 
Did I not dress well, my scent not appealing? 
Or is it those plants just utterly revealing? 
I try so hard and wish and wish 
For just one oh so gentle lovely kiss. 
With the woods, to feel how they felt. 
Without love, my heart will just melt.
