my dancing hope, my falling leaves, my absent friends

my fingers stretch out in all directions lost, looking for a friend why am I the last one left? my branches twisting in the air why are all my friends gone? the grass above my roots dances along with my leaves it brings back memories how long can I hold on to my leaves, my hope wish I could dance with my friends again I dance slower now, I feel weaker now my leaves, my hope they're almost gone but I hold on waiting for my friends
