A Story

There was a tree that grew next to a house. This was the most beautiful looking house on the block. Just as so, this was the most crooked, winding tree in the world. Yet, despite their differences, the two enjoyed each other’s company. The house liked having a trace of life near her. The tree liked having such a comforting place in company. What the tree didn’t realize was that the house had other trees growing near her before. And those trees hurt her in unspeakable ways. So much so that the simplest amount of love this new tree would show the house would therefore be denied for the rationale that it was just too good to be true. Most of the time the tree kept his distance. One time he didn’t and that really fucked things up. The tree and the house don’t know why they put up with each other.
