seeds

it’s an honour to see you
during these beautiful moments
of frustration.
                      you’d like to pretend
that doesn’t ever happen,
you’d like to
                    take those moments back –

recognize they are seeds
sown into the future.
make sure it is good soil
in which they find purchase.
make sure
                  you know to whom
the field belongs,
that the object of your longing
is worth your regret.
