Window of reasonA Poem by Brittany Elizabeth
There was a guy who loved me tremendously, but I took him for granted. The only way to accept change is to see change. It's time to correct this, so I'll start at my roots. I will work my way up my stems, through my branches, up into my leaves until I am able to bloom beautiful flowers once more. There was a man who loved me despite my faults, but I took him for granted. Chances only come around once in a blue moon, so if given a chance, yet alone, a second chance, make the most of it. Don't let any moment slide through your delicate petals, or you will be faced with no more chances. You can't bring a flower back to life if it's been neglected for to long, so start at the roots. If by chance, or circumstance you happen to let your flowers wilt you must fix it before it's to late, for once that flower is gone, it shall not return to this world. Let that flower down, and it will wilt, dry out, and fall to the ground eventually, becoming a non existent form, blending in with the rest of the earth, and forgotten for the rest of time. There was a man who loved me unconditionally, but I took him for granted. I let his stems bend, his leaves burn, and his flowers wilt. I let all of this happen, and still expected him to flourish. I allowed his delicate petals to hit the earth for a second time, and when I realized that I had taken him for granted, it was almost to late. A flower fell. It fell to the earth, only to become a non existent form blending in with the rest of the earth as I had done so to a flower stemming from those very same roots in the past. This flower will not be forgotten. This flower will become the very nutrients to help nourish these tender petals, and bring it back to life in full bloom. This flower will not be forgotten, this garden will flourish, blooming new flowers, bigger flowers, unforgettable flowers. There is a man who loves me tremendously, and I will not take him for granted.
