Speak to me the lyrics
of a song for witch I yearn.
Play for me a tune
of a melody i haven't heard.
Tell to me a story
of a love that could have been.
And whisper for me a lie
of an actually happy end.
Draw to me a picture
of a truth that could break a heart.
Describe for me the existing joy
if it was never there to start.
Point to me a person
who does not desire what they cant have.
Ask for me that person
if they don't regret what they could have had.
Explain to me a question
of which the answer you would give anything to hear.
And think for me your reaction
if only silence met your ear.

its branches touch many in life
seeks to display love and honesty
gives others a smile,
