You have deprived me of all light and air

You have deprived me of all light and air
And want to know where I find the strength I often need
To breathe, at night to watch the starry skies up there
To take up work when I wake up, to simply write and read.
 
So what is it that I can tell you, dear?
That all those hearts that have been crushed alive…
Despair gives them strength and they have no fear,
Despair so total that it gives them hopeless drive.
 

Look - two trees are growing

Look! Two trees have grown
From a single root.
Be it fate or accident’s unknown,
But unrelated, they ensued.
 
When winter blizzard blusters,
When the frost is harsh and stern,
Birches are in safety kept by firs
From the wind's fatal churn.
 
And in the heat when grass burns,
And firs about to smolder,
Birch’s shade grants reprieve,
And to survive lends shoulder.
 
Not blood related, nevertheless,
Their closeness is forever,
But people - they create a mess,
More bitter shame I’ve known never.
