I heard your laugh
and it planted a warm feeling in my stomach
it has been so long since I've heard it
I missed it so
I swore
that I could feel seeds of adoration sprouting
deep in my bones
I could feel the stalks
creeping up
the vines wrapping round my bones
the buds crowding in my lungs
the leaves encasing my heart
the flowers exploding in my throatI was at a loss for words
I couldn't breathe
My stomach had a funny feeling
my heart was thumping wildlyoh curse
are seeds of adoration
turning in
to flowers of love
