Life Cycles

the beginning

You dropped a seed.

I picked it up and gave it a home in myself.

 

the middle

It grew in my heart.

I cared so much for it,

Watered it,

As hard as it was, I even changed the soil surrounding it.

Blossomed into such a beautiful floret.

 

the end

You left.

The sacred efflorescence shed its petals.

My soil wasn't enough for you.**
