In the days that slip by like rain to the earth,
Needed yet left unnoticed,
I notice how much I need you like a winter's showers.
Replenish what is me and help rebuild what is there.
Make this being better then the years before,
Surpass the other lovers, the other words whispered to me,
In hopes to drown out, drain out and remove the poisons and hormones
They pumped into my roots that long to be growing into your soil.
Let us then resume the gardening of the soul.
Digging up holes just to place ourselves, our secrets,
Our lives into them.
Wishing beauty and color will derive from such small yet potent seeds.
They will come through from the murky, grainy soil.
Even if it kills me.
I hope, says the flower, You and I
Stay leeched together,
Stay attached until we wither as one,
Returning to your lovely green roots.
And embracing the soft, delicate world that is romance among two
Flower and Earth.
