The Garden Is Rid of Weeds In Order To Grow Things

sometimes when
someone walks away

rather than grieve 
be relieved

it is one burden
less to carry

but in your heart
he/she is still a friend

it is merely a separation
resulting from human difference

the garden is rid of weeds
in order to grow things
