Don't you get tired of gripping so tightly?
Of choking the life from the very garden you planted?
How lonely to feel you can only survive at the cost of others' blossoming
How sad to believe you can only grow if others don't
How desperate to think that the soil intended to nourish so many should only come from your hold
Don't think I don't see you
It breaks my heart that you'll never stand in your glory
It makes me sorry to know you'll do this all Again
It leaves me breathless that you'll never know your fragrant beauty
Because you'll never breathe in if you don't first exhale
