So...Can you hear my whisper

It echoes of off my branches

Rushes through the leaves

Tickles at your ears

Warning you to leave 

 

Now...Can you hear my song

Played by hooves on stones

Sung by rushing streams

Pushing you away

...or begging you to stay

 

Here... Can you hear my sorrow

In all my birds' calls

Lost in the countless howls

Forcing you to remain

Making you see humans's stain

 

Can you hear... No can you see

My might in every tree

My breath in every life

My scars left by your hands

My anger at  your ignorance

 

Can you understand

The truth of who I am

I am the forest humble guard

But you won't comprehend

So you'll just turn to leave without 

Without remembering anything from me
