Take of the fruit that thrives here.
Sleep soundly in the sycamore's shade.
In time, what you've enjoyed will replenish.
Paradise.
Open to all.
My garden.
You may find my spiral staircase;
But do not wander beneath my Eden.
No trove exists to entice you.
Twisted alloys sprawl from floor to ceiling.
Life choked out from within its passages.
Shrapnel covered pathways and barbed footholds.
Labyrinth.
A price of iron.
My soul.
You breathe light into pallid tunnels.
Padlocks crumble under your touch.
Pave your own path through my body.
An empty auditorium, walls ascending into the void.
Center stage, a single flower encased in a ray of light.
Scentless, white, sepals of stainless steel.
Unremarkable.
It's yours now.
My heart.
It's hard not to love you when you've ignored my every obstacle.
Now take it and leave.
