LIFE.

a beautiful flower.
it has thorns.

do you want it?
she gestured to me.

i shook my head.
her eyes smiled.

she picked it carefully.
placed it in a concrete vase.

it needs to breathe.
i know.

she watered the flower.
there's no space.

i know.
she placed it by the window.

the sunlight reaches it.
it will grow.

i didn't answer.
she smiled and left.

4 months gone.
i visited.

it's you.
her eyes smiled.

hi.
the flower.

it grew.
i told you.

i stared in wonder.
the flower grew.

out of the window.
i laughed.

my heart sparkled.
you will grow.

i smiled at her.
i'd witnessed it.

miracles?
nah.

it's just life.
