A Letter to You

On a spring day in the afternoon sun
I write these words to you
It's here that I've died and been reborn thousands of times
I've been scattered amongst the cirrus clouds that are swirling through the sapphire sky
I've shed my skin and found myself anew with the budding leaf of green
I've buried the ashes of my previous thoughts deep in the dirt
Let there be food for flowers 
I want something beautiful to grow from my darkness
Every breath I exhale into the breeze is a part of me that loves you
My heart, my mind, my soul
I hope that I can reach you
