I Will Guide You Home. Poem by Violet Warren

oh my, my heart has stopped beating
I feel nothing inside
this is a deadly feeling
which leaves you asking why?
suddenly the flowers bloom up through your chest
finally the you sense the feeling weightless

my body has gained something
this is no ordinary wish
my heart is changing this is not a myth
my lungs are vomitting the love that I live

it is over now, there's no going back
you dedicated your life to a selfless act
you have to understand it's not weakness
that drags you down, it's living your weeks like this
your lying when you know
that there's so much more to life
but you try to hide
you don't want to change what's inside
it's fine to grow and be better than you are right now

you don't have to let go of the truth
you just have to let the truth breathe into you
it's not a choice of cunning wit
I want you to know
I will guide you home
