your branches are growing strong, absorbing the praise from abovebut the roots that hold your weight are slowly breaking upnow you dont mind the heat, or lack of rain in the cloudsbut soon enough youll dry up and return to the groundthe desert wind has betrayed you; it seems youre all alonethe nights are cold and now you wish that you had knownthe cactus life is tough; but not so much when friends pull throughso next time dont forget them and they wont forget about yourespect fades, the heat creates some distance between usshelter greed with spines; we see your true self underneathi can see the wall of rainacross the open desert plainand you wont fight unless you know you can windig yourself into the groundand search for drops; the rushing soundof air above declares the changing of windsdont expend your energy on something that you dont believebeatriz dahrug :]
