He planted a seed,
Deep in the soil
To keep it safe from harm,
Away from the turmoil
In isolation,
It lay inside
But his love for it,
Never died.
He came by every day,
He watched it grow
From the darkest corners,
Love had been sown
A seed thought to be buried,
And hidden away
In reality, was saved,
For a better day.
He watered it,
With his desolate cries
As the days wore on,
He watched it rise
As the magnolia bloomed,
From her sheltered seed
Her heart swelled with pride,
Her eyes shone with glee.
She broke down her walls,
Her cage of petals fell
She blossomed with grace,
And she shed her shell
He promised he'd shower her,
With trust and transcendence
He'd be there when she needed,
And still respect her independence.
She offered all her petals,
She gave him her heart
Although she knew he was hers,
From the very start
As her love for him bloomed,
From her stem to her shoots
She never lost herself,
She never cut her roots.
