The trees break more than the grass

I wanted to grow big

So that I would be seen

But have ended up with

The victim of jealousy.

I wanted to grow strong

So that I could stand

But have ended up with

The victim of the foes.

I wanted to grow great

So that I would leave my legacy

But have ended up with

The backbiting of the trusted.

Trees break easier than grass.
