Flower In Concrete
Flower In Concrete
Covered in ashes of stardust,
Got this far, few more steps to heaven.
Words are buried deep like orchids,
Wounds are open like a primrose
And it's raining Poseidon's tears.
But if you stay, stay, stay
In the storms of may.
And if you pray, pray, pray
Like a candle on a windy day,
You'll grow like a flower in a concrete rift.
You'll make your way through trenches with faith.
Even if the sun doesn't rise, there's fire in you,
You will have to fight for what belongs to you.
How do I know what do I mean?
Drags myself down to these ghost towns.
Dreams hidden like sepsis in a nail,
Dye fading like dew from cattails,
And aeolus singing words of plath.
But if you play, play, play
Your heart like ballet.
And if you fray, fray, fray
Like a dandelion in a gale,
You'll grow like a flower in concrete rift.
You'll make your way through trenches with faith.
Even if the moon is new, you are the star burning nights,
You don't have wings but spine like a kite.
Ivy covered my skin,
Lies hide my sins and
Broke my quill to make wings.
I breathed my cries,
Their hands are tied and
I hear them sing lullabies to their crimes.
Wait for seed I threw to grow flowers
In concrete rift on my towers.
So if i say,
That I'll grow like a flower in concrete rift.
I'll make my way
To thy roads on signboards.
You should trust me,
You shall see me
Grow like a flower in concrete rift.
