They say bloom where you are planted
Well I bloomed…
Now
I
am
wilting
Is it due to lack of water(peace)
Being cut off from my life force
Was I fed the necessary vitamins
1 part love
1 part understanding
1 part appreciation
1 part dedication
Is it the stress that keeps coming
In waves drowning me before I can get up
Before I can stand on my feet
If I can just stand up
I’ll be alright
I’m sure
Is it day after day of the same shit
What can I do to break the monotony
I feel like
I need to dip my toes in the water
I need to soak it up through my stem
I need all that will allow me to bloom again
The problem may be my location
Maybe where I was planted was the wrong flower pot
The wrong vase with flowers that sucked up all the water
A flower bed overgrown with weeds
Maybe I am not getting enough light
Dig me out, pull me up, lift me out and replant me
I can’t grow here with these weeds
Suffocating me
Plant me in new soil, in a pot all my own
Face me toward the sun
That is where I will thrive best
Water me
Feed me
Nourish me
Love me
I have bloomed and I have wilted
I am made new
Due to the replanting of my being
In another location, flower bed, pot, vase
I am saved
