to replant or relearn
like they're the same thing
that to swallow a seed
is like eating the tree
water feeds worry
& words tell me
n o t h i n g
but you told me that you loved me
& it is all I can believe
tonight i'm finding poems
in every place you stood
& I am digging deep in gardens
busting knuckles over wood
the grace to understand, my love
is doing me no good
it is the way you burn inside of me
I wish you understood
