Grass

by scarletniamh

If grass was a girl, She'd be so beautiful That words wouldn't justify her. They would have to be unwoven and recreated For them to fit her. She would shine and grow in the light, But feel all of the pain in the world When in the darkness. It would make her wither away into nothingness And disappear. But, out of the blue, She would appear again To always be there for everyone who needs her. Those people, however, Would not appreciate her love And would trample over her as if She were nothing. If grass was a girl, She would be crushed by the world And see a fractured image of it Through a long broken window. Her happiness would be stolen by the selfish, Who take for themselves and never give back. That's the thing About the girl named "Grass". She's broken, unable to differentiate Between those who care about her And those who do not. She becomes isolated in a cocoon of sadness Because no one appreciates her for who she is. However, A drop of rain later, She is happy again And becomes even more beautiful than she was before.

Notes

~~ This is about a friend I was once very close to. I'm sorry for abandoning you,  I'm sorry for hating you. Despite everything you did to me, despite how much you ruined me and destroyed my wellbeing, I still love you with everything in me. I wish I knew how to let go. Forever and always. ~~
