You are a flower that blooms from the depths of mother nature
Giving me life with every root you anchor
You bring beauty into this world that measures to no other
Having you with me as I with you was something I only dreamed of
I viewed my life as meaningless until you rose from the murky depths full of pain, trauma, hardship and struggle
Watching you rise above waters to bloom as if you'd never been touched
I was amazed
Amazed to see you clean and so pure despite where your roots are
Amazed by the colors of your petals as they shine in the warm sun
Entrancing every being within eyes reach including my own
With all those eyes you only saw mine
Swaying in my direction as I gravitate in yours
Hands reaching out so your petals lay into my pores
I feel the scent you give off into my soul as I had been reborn
As you heal my scars and give me the strength to move forward
I fall in love and forever call you Lotus
