"I love you"
said every lover
And beloved felt pride and joy
gave its value and quality
which was determined only by the lover
but cornered
drowned in that suffocating excitement
"I will nurture you."
said everyone who cared
every woman tried to
every man mumbled
every gardener whispered to their first sapling came into view
which was crying, covered in red
they all promised the same
Every teacher, preacher
Team player, songwriter
Mountain climber, caller, and answerer
All mean something, even when everything
that is out there
has been made and said before
Then what does it mean?
Should I face the past and walk around unstable corners?
Try to find a word, a meaning that is not impossible
for me to value it
for me to love and nurture it
Made just for me
But then I remember
There is one thing which is just special
solely for me to give my attention to
I looked at my feet, moved to my fingers, nails
My eyes and lashes
There is only one me
It is time to recover
To regrow my inner
child
lover
gardener.
