Groomed to the likings of hands which undermine my being
Then plucked from my soil and wielded as a token to embellish their fantasy
A knowing exchange of life to satiate a fleeting desire
The love you claim extends to you and only you
In the remnants of the roots you deem disposable, I nurture my rebirth with the warmth and care it so tenderly deserves
I water myself in connections, knowledge, and clarity, flourishing in the bloom of my own creation
