~ through the heavenly trees ~

"We need to save those Elders who cannot speak for themselves -- the trees." ~ Haida Gwaii, Traditional Circle of Elders

 

The trees are the Elders of the Earth. Go to the forest or to the mountains and find a young tree. Then find an old tree. Spend time with each. Sit by the young tree and listen to your thoughts. Then move to an old tree and listen to your thoughts again. Just being in the presence of an old tree, you will feel more calm. Your thoughts will contain wisdom and your answers will be deeper. Why is this so? These old trees know more, have heard more, and are the Elders of the Earth. We must ensure these trees live so we can learn from them. My Creator, help me to protect the trees and listen to them.

all alone in a empty room

nothing left but the memory's

of whennn

i had my best friend

and i don't know how we ended up here

i don't know but it's never been so clear

we made a mistake dear

and i see the broken glass infront of me

i see your shadow hanging over me

and your face i can see

 

through the tree's

i will find you

i will heal

the ruins left inside you

cause im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

until im set free

go quiet through the tree's

 

and i remember how we used to talk

about the places we will go when we were off

and all that we were gonna find

and i remember watching our seeds grow

and how you cried when you saw the first leaf show

the love was pouring for your eyes

so can you see

the branches hanging over me

can you see

the love you left inside of me

and my face

can you see

 

through the tree's

i will find you

i will heal

the ruins left inside you

cause im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

until im set free

go quiet through the tree's

 

cause your not coming back

and your not coming back

noooooooooooooooooooooo

noooooooooooooooooooooo

nooo your not coming back

your not coming back

and take my breath

as your own

and take my eye's to guide you home

cause im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

and im still here

 

cause im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

and im still here

 

cuz im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

im still here breathing now

and im still here

and your not coming back

im still here breathing now

and your not coming back

im still here breathing now

cause your not coming back

im still here breathing now

until im set free

go quiet through the tree's
