Bloom

September 3, 2019

Why is it a sin to bloom

To bloom means to express yourself in someone else

So why is it a sin to bloom

To bloom means to be freed from the inside out

Is it a sin to find yourself?

Is it a sin to find someone else?

The Christians believed that there is only one way to be freed

Through Jesus

But what if they were wrong

What if we can free ourselves

What if they say to bloom is a sin because

they want to keep it all for themselves

They say it is pure but

Not in the way it should be

To live your life for someone else, something else, is fine

But we shouldn’t be watched and we shouldn’t be fined

For living our lives and choosing to bloom

If Christ was crucified for our countless crimes then

Throw light upon the reason why

thou shall not touch ones lips with another’s in the darkness

Less to be condemned to hell by your loving father

If only we choose to embrace ourselves entirely

We can embrace ourselves and each other too

We need to find the sun

We need to find our own Jesus

The flower only blooms with sunlight

You cannot force a flower to bloom

It has to do it on its own will

So if you choose to bloom

Choose to bloom the most beautiful form of yourself

For to give yourself away to another

Is to find yourself all the same
