[hometext] => I don't like being morbid with humans, so I thought I'd use tree branches instead. Hopefully it dosen't sound too silly...My first submission. ^^
[bodytext] => I live in a place where even tree branches compete for the light Each one it tries to outgrow the others; leaving them weeping in its shadow And how ironic it is that they come from the same roots They must know theyre only hurting themselves in the end But they could care less, its so indivisualized No matter how close knit your group may be For that one moment they'll sacrifice everything, Even their family members But you have to realize, the life of one measly tree branch can't be satisifying Any second now some dumb kid could come along and rip if off; Throw it on the ground and stomp on it just to hear that crunch sound It will be suffocated in dirt And then even the dimmest hope of light Will be no more.
