My Cherry tree



Just like rain is for plants
You were for me
In my dream garden
You were the cherry tree.

The cherry tree,
Which I loved the most
Which was planted deeply
In my heart's coast.

At first, I thought
Just let it be,
There's no harm
In planting a tree.

Even if it gets uprooted
In the very first place,
I'm strong I thought and so
I'll find my solace.

But...

The things turned out to be different from what I had planned
The effect, in comparison
Was way too grand.

I lost you
My cherry tree was lost.
The dream world's spring
Immediately turned into a frost.

I lost my companion,
my bestie, my love,
That Time for me was
Really, really tough.

How a casual feeling
Became so strong?
I guess I was the one
Who interpreted it wrong.

It was never casual
I should have realised in the start
That this little plant
Has the capacity to tear me apart.

That this little plant
Will deeply adjust its root
And, in the adverse conditions
It will extract than recruit.

It doesn't mean
You have no goodness, I see.
Infact you're the best thing
That has ever happened to me.

You're still there
You still live in my heart
I still consider you
My most beloved part...
