People are leaves on a tree
We all have our own spot and purpose
When we find the ones we love, we start to blossom
But sometimes people can fall down and leave us
Especially our loved ones
Sometimes people grow and replace those who go
We shed a couple of tears
But we all stand tall and proud no matter how bad things get
Our roots define who we are
You can’t see them but they are always there
There to balance our life
