“I gave you water every day, Sunshine songs, a cozy clay. You stretched your leaves so wide and fair— I thought you knew how much I cared. But puddles grew where roots should breathe, Your stem turned soft, a silent plea. One leaf dropped, then two, then three— My love drowned you, and now I see. You were my friend in that bright room, A green hello that fought the gloom. I didn’t mean to steal your light, Just wanted to hold your petals tight. Now your pot sits empty, small, Dirt stained with tears I let fall. Sometimes love pours like a storm— Too much warmth can break what’s warm.” — Saurabh T
I gave you water every day,
Sunshine songs, a cozy clay.
You stretched your leaves so wide and fair—
I thought you knew how much I cared.
But puddles grew where roots should breathe,
Your stem turned soft, a silent plea.
One leaf dropped, then two, then three—
My love drowned you, and now I see.
You were my friend in that bright room,
A green hello that fought the gloom.
I didn’t mean to steal your light,
Just wanted to hold your petals tight.
Now your pot sits empty, small,
Dirt stained with tears I let fall.
Sometimes love pours like a storm—
Too much warmth can break what’s warm.
