You're Not A Seed

You're a show, that comes on when I sleep

When I close my eyes

I'm just helping good things grow



Once a dog strayed inside my yard

Left in the wet dirt the impression of your paw

At least that's what I thought it was a dog



You were sown, watered when you were dry

You were just a seed

I was helping good things grow



Now you're gone, I know what you were

Not dream or seed or animal

You turned out to be a girl

At least that's what I think you were a girl



I don't have room for this big hole

It moves from wall to wall letting in cold

What more can something need to grow

Provided food and shelter and got back sorrow
