Biorhythm (Fruition Revised)

Folder: 
For Broken Hearts

In time abridged

ex post facto

I saw everything 

clearly

 

But in organic tempo 

it was insidious

Scarcely perceptible

surreptitious

a delicate

deliberate

disentangling

 

How I ached

to remain 

clinging close 

secure 

so sure

 

Ah but life

ever grimly gathering

reaps defeat

collects surrender

in slow 

somber swaths

 

Even the most perfect

of fruits must cede 

must ripen 

soften 

drop 

rot 

to make way

for new roots
