Loves Blossom

You plant a seed in the ground,
At a spot no one has ever found.
But if you walk away,
It will slowly decay.

It came with care,
Something you don't want to share.
The seed is yours!
Something you've never seen before!

The stem pops out,
Not because it was in drought.
You sought to keep it,
You won't just lose it.

Now that it's grown,
You claim it as your own.
The smell of sweet bliss,
Almost like the taste of a sweet bloomed kiss.

Can you see the soil?
How it never coiled.
Because you never left go,
You never let the wind go to blow.

A victim of being held to the point of smothering. Too much of a good thing, backfires. Intense piece! Great job!
