A flower grows until it blossoms,
reaching the peak of its
full bloom and beauty.
After the flower reaches its peak
of full bloom and beauty,
it begins to fade and wilt away,
until there is nothing left
but leaves on a stem.
I never want to quite reach my full bloom and beauty,
because then I would begin to fade and wilt away,
and I don’t want to completely fade and wilt away.
Externally, my bloom has begun the process of
fading and wilting to some degree,
but internally I am still
growing,
blooming,
and blossoming.
I have not yet
reached the peak of my
full bloom and beauty
of the person I am still becoming.
Internally, I never want
to fade and wilt
completely away,
turning and leaving my
mind and thoughts,
and heart and soul
into only leaves on a stem.
I want to continuously
grow, bloom and blossom
here on earth,
and later in heaven,
forever and always.
