Together, we are stronger

Your words, not mine

The plurality of the pronoun

Represents all of your selves

For there is nothing left of me

There must have been a yesterday

When I encouraged you to grow

Nurtured you with my light

While I found solace

Rooted in the soil

At your feet

But you took

More than I could give

And still you needed more

I dug myself in deeper, down, down, down

Lost my light to the depths

Of your domination

And still you grew

Stronger
