Roots Run Deep

I gave you beauty as it melted off my hands 

Showered you in prose 

Bathed you in stories 

But it was not enough 

And so you will say that when I am ripped from my stem that I will begin to rot 

But little do you know my roots run deeper, and they run wide 

There will be far more down below that you've failed to see I hide 

I will grow stronger and with vigor, dashing and true 

Because when you tried to bury me I was a seed 

And in time you'll see a new being entirely indeed.
