I Tried

rats they run across the field criws rest in the tree
barcking madly at each other
standing from the roof top i scream wint you bark for me
as you turn you back and fly away

caught on the fence you've left behind
dive into an empty pool i've tried
oh i've tried
oh i tried writing with nothing in return

when the wind freed me from the roots the tied me down
now i need them back for comforting
carvings that we left in branches sacarred up on thistree
lingering are thoughts you left with me

calling the phone that you ignore
slowly walking backwards from your door
oh i've tried
now we are done fighting, it's time that you return

candle lit small light inside the window that i see
hoping that the light still shines for me
standing on the curbside i scream please come back
as turn your back and fly away

groundhogs diggig with their claws
burying their lover with dirty paws
oh i've tried
there's no igniting, my head is in the dirt
