Once stood tall
Giants of the green
Now they bow
Falling
Unseen
Ash and ember
Choking breeze
In the wind
Whispers of trees
Streams once clear
Now black and gray
Ran with life
Now they decay
In their depths
Shadows of old
Mother's tears
Tales untold
But hope
It grows
Beneath the pain
In the cracks
Through the rain
Gentle hands
Mending the scars
Reaching high
Towards the stars
Footsteps soft on fading trails
Silent songs
Heartbeats wail
In the soil
Seeds of light
Breaking dawn
Darkest night
Rustling leaves
Timeless plea
Echoes lost
We're meant to be
In each root
Love's embrace
In our souls
Nature's grace
But hope
It grows
Beneath the pain
In the cracks
Through the rain
Gentle hands
Mending the scars
Reaching high
Towards the stars
But hope
It grows
Beneath the pain
In the cracks
Through the rain
Gentle hands
Mending the scars
Reaching high
Towards the stars
