Roots Be Bound

 

Wound tight within soft bends

I glance over my shoulder.

Observing behind the dark shadow I cast

My arms follow your shape as you walk past.

Sunk deep beneath my ridges

Emotion hides its face.

Unravel my blanket in which I hide

Feel my hollow heart inside.

Sturdy, ready for your touch

I bind myself to hard moist ground.

Blowing softly past my eyes

Clenching earth while my leaves fly.

My arms follow your shape as you walk past.
Sunk deep beneath my ridges
Emotion hides its face.
