Flowers need water,
Even the hardiest cacti
Will expire after
Two years without it,
People much the same,
But they also need love,
A caring caress,
A tender kiss,
A loving touch,
Those myriad little
Things that make friends
Become lovers
And lovers into soul mates
That last a lifetime
And indeed beyond
Mere dying,
But plants live
With no expectation
Of water,
Just faith that it will come
In time when needed,
And if it does not then
They die not knowing
They were left to do so,
People are different,
I am different,
I crave the little things
And the big,
And unlike a plant
Or a cactus I can comprehend
The concept of that
Interaction ending
And it makes me despair,
And cry
