Captionless

Bored, confused and sight slightly impaired
it stood silently trying to free itself from the clutches of its past.

Trying to grow outwards,
it unconsciously began unfurling
the long grown protrusions from its body
mutually entangled among other various things.

A slight more sky and a twig cracked somewhere,
enduring (ignoring) the sensation it ventures further.
The crackling noise is heard more, pain escalates.

A violent shrug and the sap spills all over
Triumphant yet doubtful it rises sharply to embrace the sky,
shattered foundations succumb and it drops down
in to the twigs, happy with the glory short lived.
