I Planted a Seed



I planted a seed today,
And it turned out to be the most beautiful one.
But isn't everything beautiful in its own way?
Aren't all stars just another sun?

Don't all flowers,
Look just the same, but when close,
Look different and brighter?
What are those?

Aren't those the same,
Things that I wanted to do then,
But I couldn't do them?
Because everything else was different?

Wouldn't all flowers be,
More unique when
They're allowed to breathe?
And be what they're meant?

Someone planted another seed today
And I know this flower
Would bloom more blissfully in its own way
Bloom more blissfully than any other.

A Poem to Remember You By


I ask myself this question,
Was it you who entered my dreams,
Or was it my own consciousness
That made me think of you.

Was it your smooth touch,
Your heavenly laugh and your,
Bewitching smell that
Stayed with me all those years?

Or was it your soul that,
Connected and reattached,
With me time and again
For fulfilling its purpose.

I like to think that if there were,
Enough barriers to keep me away from you,
That there were still not enough barriers
To keep away our love.

I like to think that even though,
Our bodies couldn’t make it through,
Our connected souls
Couldn’t keep us apart.

And so I hope these unclear boundaries,
Between us never end,
And that we continue to live our
Sole lives inseparable.
