Verdant Echoes

[Verse 1]
For years, my tendrils coiled, a whispered plea,
Hiding where the light might never see.
I watched my spirit dim, a quiet shade,
Each bright effervescent hope afraid.
A silent bud, I waited for the rain,
Apologies a cadence, soft as pain.

[Chorus]
No, I won't prune my growth for you today.
I need the sun, I need to stretch and sway.
My roots run deep, a verdant pulse I tend,
This sacred space where all my journeys mend.

[Verse 2]
The urban hum still whispers, soft and low,
But mountain shadows taught my soul to grow.
At twilight's edge, I watch the sky ignite,
Finding stillness in the shifting light.
A resilience woven, strong and slow,
Where quiet triumphs learn to bravely show.

[Chorus]
No, I won't prune my growth for you today.
I need the sun, I need to stretch and sway.
My roots run deep, a verdant pulse I tend,
This sacred space where all my journeys mend.

[Bridge]
Each quiet seed of self, now germinating,
A vibrant bloom, no longer hesitating.
My mycorrhizae spread, an unseen bond,
To ground myself, beyond the fear and beyond.

[Outro]
The morning dew, a luminous, fresh start,
A wilder blossom, now within my heart.
