ROOTS

A fallen seed left bare and alone
Whisked away far from home
She lives in the shadows, waiting for the day
When the warmth and light would come her way
She weathers the storms in solitude and despair
Wondering if there is anyone to care
She remains diligent as she is beaten to the ground
Holding on for dear life, trying not to make a sound
Would anyone hear her if she cried?
Would it matter if she continued to try?
Days turned into years as her roots were set into place
Growing stronger, the storms she could now face
The clouds parted and the sun beamed
It was on this day, that she finally felt seen
All of the fight and tenacity through the doubt
She had a purpose, her leaves began to sprout
They swayed back and forth, she knew this was the reason why
All of the pain came to this, the reason that she tried
They were hers, so delicate and true
She had to protect them, so they would never have to go through
Wondering if they were loved or if they had a home
She was theirs and they would never be alone
More storms came and went but together they stood tall
She knew this time was bittersweet, eventually like her, they would fall
The seasons rotated and the day had come
For her precious sprouts to drift away, one by one
She knew this would happen, but knowing did not seem to stop the ache
Watching the extensions of herself, slowly drift away
She held her ground, knowing the breeze would carry them on their pursuit
She had faith they would flourish because in their hearts they knew,
They came from strong roots
