A Letter to Anyone Who Will Listen
My darling holds a garden in her soul
A garden which overflows with life,
Which is unruly and wild,
And is breathtakingly beautiful because of it
Vines trail along the walls of the greenhouse of her lungs
Hanging flower pots spill carnations over their edges
Her ribs are interlaced with sage and rosemary
And beneath the skin of her hips resides blooming roses
If you look deep enough into her eyes,
You can see the glittering waters that feed the gardens below.
Her skin is as soft and the flowers underneath
And as tough as the vines.
Her garden is the most beautiful that i've ever seen
For everything that's in it
And I never want to stop watching it grow
Sincerely, a girl in love
