The Acorn

The limbs keep falling from our      family tree.                                         You can now see the sunlight       through it's thinning leaves.             We've lost quite a bit these last few years.                                           I've walked around aimlessly, eyes filled with tears.                                  The limbs that are left keep growing further apart.                       Like outstretched twigs it's really breaking my heart.                            What the hell has happened? I really don't know.                               Can we go back in time and watch The Acorn grow?
