sometimes the seams split and vines spill out, tender tendrils searching so soft and green and f r a g i l e
blooms open petal to petal sepals stretching stems extended something so precious and kind, so close
the color of moonlight sliding across cool sheets, sighing on bare skin, softly holding your hand in the lonely dark; you smile in your sleep and your dreams lull to quiet,
soft,
intangible moonlight as infallible protector; sometimes she puts flowers in your hair
veins overrun with petals, roots entwined with stems, stems sprouting and growing and moving with each breath, everything full and soft and fragile;
vulnerability, willingly: safe fragility--
letting the flowers grow freely
and trusting the wind
not to blow them away
