Description I sit alone in my secret cove
Out of breath and out of love
Out of all things I believe
Afar from those whom I now crave

High above thee
High above the world
You cannot see me
I'm up alone on my tree

In case you ask I'll make it clear
There is no room inside my sphere
You aren't welcome here at all
Indeed, my universe is small

I'm high above thee
On tree tops
Laughing, singing, alone and free
I'm afraid you can't come with me

So sing, be happy, gather hope
With so much you have to cope
Retire all thoughts of your end
For me no longer must you pretend

High above thee
On another world
Plucking each red cherry
Alone I'm not so caring

So now alone and far away
There is no other way to live
I wish to return another day
And that day, myself, to you I give

I think it's definitely about humans. People nowadays are very indepent. And it's hard for them to let themselves be open to other human beings. So I very much like the ending you gave it. Very sweet.

The ending was partly written as a wish of mine and partly as my way of seeing the natural progression of the state of loneliness, at least the way I saw it at the time I wrote this.
I'm happy that you like it and thank you for sharing your opinion.

Yeah, I can understand that. It's a wish. And I agree with the way of how you saw the natural progression. You don't feel like that anymore?
Anyway, you are most welcome.

I think the stanza prior to the ending might have become a self fulfilling prophecy of sorts. Or it might be that not enough time has passed yet.
Indeed my age does not grant me not the experience nor the wisdom of time, at least on some matters.
When I look back at this time in my life all seems so needlessly dramatic even though not much has changed since then.

Maybe. But I still like the ending you gave it, cause it shows hope. And yeah, some matters become more clear with age.
