Transcript

Sometimes,

I feel like a seed.

A potential inert.

A possibility to succeed.

So just put me in the dirt and give me what I need.

How else can I avert?

How else can I exceed?

Other times,

I feel hurt.

Just a societal weed.

A potential victim on alert,

Nurtured only when I bleed.

I don't mean to be curt.

How else can I plead?

How else can I divert?

How else can I be freed?

I am the hurt seed.

The weed that's only freed by the blood that it bleeds.

Put into the dirt,

Just wishing to exceed.

Inert without encouragement.

Unable to succeed.

Thus I plead.

Be alert to my need.

Don't divert or think me curt.

I just want to succeed.

So just bury me.

And perhaps this seed will grow into a weed.

Beautiful x
I'm feeling the call to be a seed atm. Buried. Inert. Dark. Dirt. Death and rebirth. The miracle of seed.
