Love’s vapor falls on my heart
like dew at spring’s first bloom.
You’ve known me from the start
since before I was in the womb.
You watched me when I matured
in this love that forever renews.
And because I kept my heart pure,
oh how this delicate flower grew!
I soaked in your warming essence,
drinking in the nectar of passion.
Basking in the glow of your presence,
I developed in awe-worthy fashion.
When autumn came and leaves fell,
my devotion to you remained in place.
I was steady while the wind swelled,
fixed to the branch of constant grace.
The world’s woods were left bare;
their seasonal happiness had faded.
No forged foliage for them to wear;
in their nakedness, they became jaded.
If only they had accepted the seed
you sow in all of our empty souls.
They wouldn’t have turned to weeds;
they would have been remade whole.
If only they had accepted the seed
you sow in all of our empty souls.
