Even a dead flower LIVES again


So my soul was breathing,
And the limitless line in my nose was teething,
Oh Shakespeare,
Don't you see I'm weeding.
May it be that I led,
Forever art thou,
In my lonely shed.
His head finally lay against my chest,
Imagine.
For the first time,
Like a toddler taking his first step.
I saw that was then when he wept,
And that's when we put our silly problems in debt.
Because he cuddles me so good,
And lay all my worries with God,
I almost stopped running,
If that meant I was running towards his nods.
I've been in this shed for so long,
My mind nearly forgot what he looked like,
As if I was only shooting for his wrongs.
A sudden flip from the kitchen knife.
Then one day,
A firefly flew across my nose,
His twinkle of light helped me show,
Why I chose to keep dead flowers,
That never grow.
See a little bit of self; a whisper past the garden's grove.
