Philosophical

my tree house 
is only as great 
as it is meager 
i did not plan on it 
it just worked out 
that way 
 
i never saw 
my tree house 
though i believed 
that it was out there 
so i started building it 
inside my head 
 
i would love for you to see it 
though it's not what you might think 
and i guess that is the way i had hoped for it to be 
being said that i did not conceive any of it 
it just came up 
out of its own 
 
when i 
close my eyes 
i can see it now 
that i've grown into it 
its walls are made out of leaves 
and within the wind it is wafting 
me 
 
i've come to see 
my tree house finally 
but first i had to lose 
the eyes of my youth 
to be able to stand back 
in order to ask some questions 
without answers 
 
for the query without end 
is the most entertaining 
and it keeps us yearning on 
to find out what the tree is 
one of many all along 
within
