Love Seed

Together we planted
a love seed
to watch it grow
a reflection of how we thought our love would.
Together they started out so well
with everything it needed
the seed began to show signs of growth
as our love grew in tandem.
Then the storms rolled in
and struck our progress with all its might
and we could not weather its wrath
as our fragile base crumbled in frail soil.
Outside we watched our seed
struggle to stand against the wind
as we felt ourselves slowly drift apart
in the floods of our cascading emotions.
Watching intently
we begin to wonder if there
is any end to this storm
that continues to drive us apart.
Just then the clouds begin to disperse
and our seed lies uprooted on its side
exposed to the emerging sun
it begins to evaporate its life sustaining water.
Even our love begins to evaporate,
lies and misconceptions waft away in mist
as our true love begins to wither
and we begin to see lies we sowed lie exposed.
We scoop up our seed together
that was meant to tower high and mighty
as a symbol of what we wanted our love to be
but instead it lies in the dirt uprooted and dehydrated.
Despite its condition
we dig down into the earth and replant it
and hope that it may being to grow
as it perfectly embodies our true love.
