Worm

The worm eats his way through the walls
these walls that protect me
he works his way with words so smooth
allowing the sunlight to creep in
bringing rebirth to the soil
cleansing  the trash
as he works his way in
allowing new growth
rebirth of the seeds lost
from the tossed aside
tolling the ground
making it shake
as walls tumble
from lack of solid footing
falling helpless to one such as he
he has all the strength
to bring my world down
and all the strength
to allow those seeds
to bloom
bringing forth new life
buds
that blossom
reaching their maturity
to full bloom
allowing me to become
all that i can be

i love you worm
how dark my world would be
without you to shed the light
