Rooted
I exist
where you are,
you exist, with me;
Our roots
tie us together
like a tangled
forest of trees.
With every song
I listen to,
& in all things
I see,
my roots,
they all come back
to you--
entangling
and embracing
me.
Yet, after I am
cut down,
rooted we still
shall be,
For, I will always find
my way back
to you,
connected by
the tree.

I think you have a very beautiful and profound piece, comparing the roots and it's depth to love.
Loved the rhythm and flow to it all.
Great work.
