Gardener of My Heart - Beware Of Darkness

She holds a rose

The way the world would hold a diamond

Knows that everyone has thorns

She walks through art museums

Loves colors of the paintings

While the rest of us scroll through our phones

In a world that kills for fame

She is content to feel the rain

Maybe I’ve been living upside down

I didn’t know I was a desert

Til she put her hands on my earth

Now she tends to the gardens of my heart

Loves the weeds I was too afraid to nurse

She sips green tea

And loves to talk about the apocalypse

Like it’s a film she can’t wait to see

She’s patient with her plants

And know the best seeds take time

In a world that wants instant everything

In a world that seems to scream

She whispers love to everything

Maybe all I’ve treasured was just trash

I didn’t know I was a desert

Til she put her hands on my earth

Now she tends to the gardens of my heart

Loves the weeds I was too afraid to nurse

She is the gardener of my heart

She is the gardener of my heart

She lives her days the way a sage would spend a lifetime

Looking in towards everything

She knows this life is just a dew drop on a pedal

Burning in the morning sun

In a world that keeps it’s truth locked

She knows that wisdom moves in paradox

Maybe my life’s about to begin

I didn’t know I was a desert

Til she put her hands on my earth

Now she tends to the gardens of my heart

Loves the weeds I was too afraid to nurse

She is the gardener of my heart

She is the gardener of my heart

I am in bloom

I am in bloom

I am in bloom with you
