When Winter Wallows

growth

i'm bursting out of myself
like the seed i planted all those years ago
the roots forcing through the plastic box
like how i'm pushing myself through this;
and out of my plastic box
because just like wild nature
its natural to push through the cracks
even when you can barely see the light

i am bigger than my body
i am bigger than my home
i only continue to grow
whether you want me here or not
so dont cut me down
you no longer
control me
and i'll only grow stronger
