bloom

 
I didn't catch your name as I walk by
on my way to nowhere important
I missed a connection
and somehow I'm sure you had something important to say

in a waiting room positive my next move vital
you were talking and I was blocking you out
your soul was reaching and I look the other way
not wanting to make the connection

a hazy feeling came over me
like pay attention this could be the missing quotient
friendliness and kindness spread the same

aloof you wonder why people don't come close
in hurry running to and fro
get in touch with me when you get a minute

it's your heart we have some things to discuss
a pressing feeling from ignoring your desires
secrets you keep even from yourself

bleeding internally for the blue girl who never takes breath
her books are all pressed with daisies
she sings to the sky
the trees talk to her
she walks on the winds
and when she is brave she collects all of her thoughts
then finds her way back to you

her name is Melancholy the realest part of you
budding with ideas she is the seedling
your sorrow is the soil
sweet tears are the rain
beautiful relief opening the door and letting the sunshine in
