She's A Tree

Hey,

did you come
down here
all the 
way to
the bottom 
of me
all 
of the
way
with 
me?
Quiet.
Be quiet.
Hear 
the yellowed 
fingers
of the 
spider web?
Don't breathe.
Don't breathe.
Don't breathe.
Then you can
finally rest
in 
peace
with me.
I can't.
I can't hold
on.
I can't hold
on
to you.
I didn't know 
you were me.
I couldn't
I couldn't.
Perhaps, though.
What if I...
Why can't I...
I'm so
very 
hurt
and 
uncertain.
