Our relationship has never been simple.
You are a tree, with many branches
climbing up to the top
branches get in the way on the way up
some sturdier than others.
Sometimes I fall,
and it hurts
and I'm lucky if I don't hit any of the branches on the way down.
But I get up and start climbing again.
As I look up at the intimidating height of the tree from the bottom,
I wonder if I'll ever get to the top.
Up so far from the ground that nothing can get to me,
unless I climb down again.
