Poems
Feb 2019
let her grow
I see you pluck heedless flowers
from the ground where they grow
dressing your narcissism as love.
And you put it in a vase, to sooth
the gnawing fact that it is nothing
more than a casket. She waits do die.
You think her beautiful, so convinced
only you deserve to handle her charms,
yet in your watch she slowly withers.
Love, you can keep picking flowers
but none of them will stay
until you realize it doesn’t need you.
she thrives in the wild by her roots,
by the ground where she stands.
you can watch her bloom
without tearing her apart.
that is how you must love.
