Les Loved Poem by Kat Hix

it bloomed like
it would today
i have not
did i stop
to realize
have you not
watered its roots
its leaves have not
withered


it weathered like
it would this day
beauty did i
stop to realize
have you not
visited me this day
a heart i have
grown weary
today.
this day
i have realized


it grown to love
you like it would
my heart, my heart.
les loved i
say, truly, this
day i won't forget
not seeing you
i must not regret.
