Untitled

I’m becoming like the flower that shrivels in the downpour
Who’s petals collapse beneath the weight of the drops
And darken and saturate until they sink into the ground.
I’d like to bury my head in the soil
Sink low into the Earth and fertilize the roots of tiny seedlings.
I wsnt to inspire
I want to rattle the Earth with all I carry with me.
Set me free
Set my soul free
Let me loose to fly through the grass and ripple the ground
Like waves in water
Like waves in air
My heart beats with a desire to affect you
To grab you and shake beauty to your surface
So that you too might affect someone.
