Love is Like a Seed



Love is like a seed planted in the heart,
It can grow like a painting made out of art,
It can faulter in flames and turn to poison,
Love can be annoying.

Love is like a seed grown in time,
It can grow upon your heart just like a vine,
It can wither and wind away,
Love can be lost every day.

Love is like a seed that never blooms,
Forever left alone to be entombed,
It can thrive when you least expect,
Love can rise out of neglect.

Love is like a seed sown in soil,
It can be torture flourishing in toil,
It can make you worry and wish,
But love is well worth the risk.
