let me welcome you

into the garden that is my mind

graced with thriving vines of thought,

plagued with thorns of doubt

that cause a litter of words

broken and frail

to form at my feet

until i’m drowning in words,

tightly packed

and jumbled up

confused as to whether they could have

ever made sense

and as i sink

into the leaves of insecurity

i can’t help but admire the sky,

glittered with hope

of what these vines could produce

and what could thrive in this haven

of my mind

that has already proven resilient

to the drought of creative flow

and from the drought

came an abundance of growth

a testament to a bigger truth,

that my talent remains consistent

even when the words are disconnected

and the river of creativity doesn’t flow,

my mind has always and will always

be graced with new growth

and my garden will remain

a haven

in my mind.
