Unnamed

There’s a lot of tension
Between the both of us
I thrive best when I know
There’s a way out
Locating the other side
Swallowing my pride
I found a portal out of the
Best part of a jungle
Past the heliconias
Stepping over the sundew
Under the waterfall
And into a freedom from
Codependent claws
Seeking to tattoo
My body with lifelong
Tiger claw marks
Projecting to make me feel
Like I can’t do it myself
As if there is no one else
That my success was
Solely reliant on your
Presence but my sword
Was sharpened
Machete ready to cut
Through the nonsense
The size of a tropical storm
From this a new dawn
Was born a plant to seed
Collecting rainwater
Nurturing the soil
Pitching a tent to
Protect myself from a
Grave danger I regarded as the
Passion grew more powerful
Too the intensity of life
Truly bloomed into
The most beautiful flower
Still yet unnamed
