Replant What Once Was
you used to captivate me
by all that you were
if you were all i could see
it wouldn’t matter
because i would never bore
of your vibrant presence
instead my heart craves more
of your sweet attendance
i lay awake in the dead of night
sleepless as my heart clenches
because i desire my radiant light
my beloved to me you are precious
you don’t have to look a certain way
you’re as bitter sweet as nectar
my lips softly say
they know as they are your kiss collector
and yet we weren’t written in stone
for one day our light faded
ivy soon had overgrown
and soon had invaded
but still sometimes in the sun’s absence
i feel my heart speed again
thinking of our past passions
and soon a seed forms a stem
