Blossom
Darkness,pain,hurt
Blinding
Uncertain,unplanned,
Misleading
ungrateful,unresponsive,unhappy
All seeds of bitterness
Emotional cycles, repetitive cycles
At one time or another
One of these is familiar
Building pain within
Blinding us without
Building walls around
Destroying bridges around
Inevitably islands begin to surface
Unsustainable islands, lacking fruit, lacking food,
Lacking spiritual sustenance
Sucking life, draining, killing
Cease the cycles! Bring forth new seasons!
Kill those emotions! Bring forth new life!
Starve those emotions! Give birth to a new spirit!
-thus
Starve them-those monsters within
Drain them of life-little useless dragons within
Silence the voices forever...
And bring forth a new you
Complete self control- utmost
Kindness. peace, joy-are only but a few
Satiate on these, with diligence
And then blossom
From a shrub
Into a tree
