Flower

She has this look
A sad one
Broken
A smile that cries
Shoulders that carry the world
That holds ours too
She's not looking at me
Turns her head
Body moves to the side
Confiding in the dirt
River behind her eyes
Only a few drops fall off her cheek
She never thought it got any worse
Blaming her feet for taking her here
Hate seeing her like this
beautiful in her vulnerability
Wish I knew what to say
Wish I could be like that
When it's too much for me to handle
When I'm falling apart
That I to could do the same
Pour my heart out
On my knees on a barren landscape
Pleading with the earth
Sobbing why
no reply from the universe
She thinks she's nothing
But she doesn't see
The Flowers in her footprints
All the life she leaves behind
