Seedling
Like a seed
Planted for a tree,
I grow and grow
My back, strong and tall
Through thorns and thistles.
You can't tell me
I've not been through enough
And I still won't
go through some things more.
But I'll flourish like a palm tree
Just like the Psalms said
Under the gentle care of the vine grower
Clinging unto the branches
Well aware of how dangerous
this journey truly is.
So, would you still like to catch
even the smallest glimpse
into this life I have led?
Are you really that curious,
For growth?
