Tree

Michael Gungor

Did the tree of life divorce its body?
Seek to save the soul but hate the bark
Long for freedom from its branches?
Despise the roots that plumb the dark

Are trees ashamed of needing sunlight?
Feeling guilt for being what they are?
Why does man despise the body?
Are we just afraid of death?

Or maybe we're searching
And growing and knowing
Separating good from bad
And maybe we're just tired of hurting
Afraid of losing what we have

Did the tree of life divorce its body?
Seek to save the soul but hate the bark?
What is life without a body?
What is love without the pain?

May we keep searching
And growing and knowing
Seeing both the good and bad

And maybe we could ease the suffering
Unattached to what we had
A man can learn to love his body
Without his soul being undone
You are spirit soul and body
Beneath it all
All is one
