titleless

So I am back on the writing wagon, at least for now. This is my newest, not really finished but thought I would share

i believed in the million words

sweat nothings in your ear

why paint a picture

when you could draw one in your mind

detailed descriptions from the heart

cause

i could be bent like a willow

by kind words and gentle deeds

placing your hand on my back

and telling me how nice i looked

i was open to more

heart lay bear to the dream

the fairytale

i was nimble like a weeping cherry

by the prospect

the idea

of my one love

great feelings for the all american dream

i lost myself in you

and the happiness of gray

not you or me but us

a blend of shades


now i am reborn

spring awaking

under my own strength

cause all these years

i fed myself

found nutrients in my surroundings

pruned and cared and loved

all the parts of me

gnarled and smooth

roots

bark

trunk

crown

leaves

and while you are gone

i have the most beautiful pink flowers

in bloom
