Carved Tree

There is an a long awaited silence as the wind turns the pages and the rustle of the leaves in the sound of the lost. I'm running all day so this bench under the tree strengthens me as I lay. Scoliosis is corrected, my back problems are to those who turned away from me- no chiropractor in need. 

Just this tree, which was once much smaller than me came from a seed. Now it is sheltering me. I'm carving into the bench.

It reads, “help me for I'm a broken branch trying to be a tree I am miserably just me”

This is well written. You were able to paint me a picture in a very short amount of time, complete with the emotion to match. Very good piece, even if it's mellow.

I saw this as a story but poetry is a story, I saw some pain and liked the metaphoric speaking of the tree:)

I"m a broken branch trying to be a tree. This seems to be part of a larger story.

Interesting. I don't really understand the scoliosis part... are you talking about yourself? However I really like the last line. I can really relate to it and it's a very real statement. Nice work :)
