UNDER THE TREE
He sat beneath a tree that looked like it had witnessed the first rain on Earth Him carried old art scratches,scars quiet prayers and for a moment It felt alive almost watching him back He thought he came there just to be a little sad Just to breathe Just to survive this day Because today his last hope slipped away She left No reasons No final truth Still doesn’t know why But strangely, that wasn’t what hurt the most What broke him was a question with no answer How can she live without me? He knows he knows she loved him deeply His mistakes her few silences turned one small heart into two trembling worlds They didn’t split into halves They shattered into countless pieces scattered like stars that will never align again Their separation was celebrated by the sky a full moon rising calm, cruel, beautiful Under that moon Under that tree He forgot his name He forgot time He forgot everything except one ache that refused to leave So he looked up and asked the stars “Is she okay?” There is no one left to ask No voice that knows her now Only the stars Only the silence And a man sitting under a tree
