falling into love....

what did I do..

how did I let the trust out of me?

how did I open up a door???

I let the light out of me...

I freed the warmth of my hidden me...

I fell into trust....

would it be ...or would I get only loss???

Feeling joy and delight again....

but.. NO.... it only got swept away..

and discarded into the garbage..

I felt myself shrivel and hide..

to preserve my uniqueness

I buried the seed of me..dry, cracked and withered...

into the ground, deep ..

I felt safe and warm  and protected..

It seemed for like eternity..

I was kept there..

until  my heart said trust again..

and the seed began to swell and grow and...

a sprout was revealed , small against the earth..

and my tiny leaves were spread to the ever present Sun
