Infiltrated
A Poem by
Sparrow
Spring has sprung and so have the flowers. Come Summer we'll be weeding out our dandelions though and cursing at the hard earth. For now we enjoy the fragrance of our flowers though.
Dormant bulbs of emotion
blooming
Awkwardly they sprout
Through my skin
My eyes
Covering my mind
Like a vicious weed
You attacked my brain
Numbing me
with pleasure
And comfortable warmth
Salving
my hurts and mistrust
Wrap your vines
around my heart
I feel you squeezing
Putting down
your finite roots
Covered my lungs
Tiny vines
squeezing out my breath
It’ll hurt
when they’re ripped out
A little weed killer
here and there
It’ll hurt
when you’re ripped out
Of my heart and head
To have the poison
Seeping through my veins
Reaching you
Where you penetrated
Infiltrated
But for now
I am delirious
Working under your salve
and numbing agent
your chemicals
the ones that tell me
I love you

This is pristine as are you. A beautifully heart-rending expression of love. You've shot through me with the beauty of your words coined to a description of endearing passion. These words sung to me as only a sparrow can sing.
