Bandaging Broken Branches

Bandaging Broken Branches

The trees that grow all around us,
The trees that grow all around us,
They seem to be limitless to me.
They seem to be limitless to me.
They all seem to grow around us
Trees, that be to me, limitless.

Slow moving explosions that burst within,
Slow moving explosions that burst within,
My heart has never healed any holes.
My heart has never healed any holes.
My heart, moving explosions that burst slow,
has never healed any holes within.

The roots grow firm from the ground,
The roots grow firm from the ground,
Sturdier than the tree holding me up.
Sturdier than the tree holding me up.
The tree grows up from the ground
Holding me sturdier than the firm roots.

Healed trees seem to be moving
Around me, my roots grow from
Within the ground burst slow, to us
The firm grow, the limitless tree
That has heart holes holding up roots.
To all the tree, never has explosions.


I wrote this paradelle because I like trees. :)

Paradelle Made Public - Paradelle for Liam Neeson



In all honesty, I'm not sure where this came from. I just began writing sentences that came to my mind, and soon enough, I realized there could be a connection to Taken within my paradelle.


Paradelle for Liam Neeson

If there is a Heaven, there is a Hell.
If there is a Heaven, there is a Hell.
For every shot fired, a shot taken.
For every shot fired, a shot taken.
For every shot taken, there is a Hell,
if Heaven fired.

City of Lights, Paris is.
City of Lights, Paris is.
Restaurants and art fill the streets.
Restaurants and art fill the streets.
Paris is restaurants and art.
Lights of city fill the streets.

Paris and London, two opposites.
Paris and London, two opposites.
One is rich, one is cultured.
One is rich, one is cultured.
Paris is cultured, one two opposites.
And London is rich.

There is a city of opposites
Light and the rich fill the streets.
Heaven, Hell, Paris, London,
For every art restaurant,
If cultured two fired, one shot
TAKEN.
