Hope you all have an inspiring week, filled with love, laughter and good madness!
Maybe we were trees
In our former life
Side by side
Roots deeply tangled
Branches barely touching
And when the Moon
Performed its sonata
Our leaves sang
The same melody
Lovers
Dreamers
Runaways
Found a safe haven
From our shelter
Seasons changed
People changed
Yet we were always
Growing together
In love and beauty
Side by side
Perhaps then
We decided that
We would be poets
In this life
Growing together
In love and beauty
Although
Seasons have changed
People have changed
And even we are no longer the same
Our roots still lie
Firmly
In a fertile soil
