If a Tree Falls
If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it,does it make a sound?
It’s falling fast to the ground
But no one seems to notice
Kind of like a young kid
When children are called fat, stupid, or worthless, are their cries heard?
Their self esteem falling fast
But no one seems to notice
Kind of like a preteen
When preteens are pushed into their school lockers, does anyone hear the bang?
Their confidence falling fast
But no one seems to notice
Kind of like a teenager
When freshman get labeled a fag, are their screams ever heard?
Their sense of self worth falling fast
But no one seems to notice
Do you see the pattern?
When a tree falls in a forest, it does make a sound?
It’s falling fast
You could be the one to hear it
Kind of like a friend.
