Balanced

There are two trees in a wood
that everyone talks about...

One of those trees
grew in shallow soil,
and its roots couln't hold well
to the loose ground.

The other tree had a sickness
and was rotting from within,
its trunk weak and brittle.

Everyone knew these trees would fall,
but no one expected they would fall
on each other, at the same time.
Somehow they fell against each other
and held one another up.

Some people say its a coincidence,
some people say
Give it time,
                                               they'll fall. 

But those trees are still there.
Neither of them are perfect,
but they're                  still                      standing.
