Why are they Here?

Under the glowing moonlight,
writing down my thoughts last night.
Guessing why are they here,
those tall shedded trunks.
Are they giving me a sign
or just warning me this time?
Now that my thoughts are getting shot
and my pages falling off.
The mirrors are now empty,
the leaves are grown plenty.
What shall I do….
with all these greeneries,
when I know my pages are falling gently.
OH! I got so much involved in it!?
I fear the name of my ancestors
will be killed.
How can I be so greedy?
Dumped my heart had no pity.
Now I understand….
what the trees were saying.
No matter how tall you be,
the sky can’t be touched
while you are on the streets.
