A Memory

I grew,

In a lush forest

With the breeze, 

Gently swaying the trees

So long like this,

For centuries

Then it was gone,

A memory

The hustle,

The bustle

Of city streets

Engulfed me

Once a forest now so distant,

A relic of the past

I remember the days,

When I was free

However, those days are gone

A memory
