I'll hold onto you.
Firm, like the baobab roots
I'll deepen my grip into the soils of your soul
deeper and tighter until you feel like home
I'll be your shelter through the storm
your hideout when the thunder roars
I'll be the water you seek in times of drought,
and your anchor when it floods
I'll keep you still in rough times
your saddle when the wind betrays it's pace bearing uneasy breaths
I'll be with you when it's impossible
a facilitator to your beautiful growth
I'll keep you on solid grounds
when erosion is eating you up
I'll store all your beautiful parts
even when they try to cut you down,
I will awaken the power of your regrowth
I am your roots
forever be your invisible guard,
that invincible part
not seen by naked eyes
nor touched by harmful hands
