Growing Plants


Plant my soul in soil, and let it grow naturally, like a wildflower. Feed me nothing but energy and power forever, until my flesh is golden. Look at me with a twinkle in your eyes, like your looking at the stars at night, while they give your pupils a vibrant glow. Plant my soul into freedom. Freedom of the land of the sunflowers and lavender. Let my soul run free in fields of wheat, until my body is weak and able to rest to cherish every little moment of life. Plant my heart under the roots of tall trees, and let it grow branches high into the sky for love to empower all, Look at my heart and tell me that it's still beating, beating for your love once more; please, tell me the truth, and say that my heart only wants you. Plant my tears in the ocean; let it swim with the waves against your surfboard, and hopefully you'll notice them. Feed my heart your love that it's been craving. Plant my spirit to fertilize my being spiritually; make my sins be forgiven. Plant my mind in the roots of growing flowers; creating a floral imagination, through vibrant colors. Feed my mind with positivity, and motivation; inspire me when I cannot inspire myself, please help my mind when it's in hell, pull it out of the fire. Look at my mind with acceptance, because I am imperfectly perfect enough to be accepted, I am worthy. Plant my body in books written for readers to get lost into, for readers to forget about reality, but afterwards can make reality a place of peace, love, happiness, believing, accepting, make the written become alive for readers. Plant my being. Plant me to grow.
