Beyond the Trees

 

He was different

But not like me

He had antennae

Few could see

He knew the difference

Between light and dark

He understood

The non-remark

For all of those

That could not see

He sensed the dark

Inside of me

A coat of pity

I will not wear

Thoughts my own

I do not share

Those that see

Beyond the trees

Find the leaf

That's died in me
