Petal by Petal
Your heart, petal by petal, must open,
Or your experience may never bloom.
Learn to unclose that fragile costume
You hide behind and let your love ripen.
Do not fear your blossoms will be broken.
Release the pollens that you've long entomb'd.
Unpeel that which hinders your deep perfume
From surfacing in a world awoken
By the spring breeze, and summer's hot swelter.
Do not be afraid to gesture toward
Where the wind may reposition your weight.
Breathe in the sun's rays and soak in its shelter
Until the world you perceive is restored,
And your life, fertilized, can pollinate.
