A Seed

A single seed
Planted in a field
One without greed
And a future concealed

Starved through drought
Kept from the sun
Almost impossible to sprout
Your life hasn't begun

Struggling through a lifetime
To find a way
You should be in your prime
But that was taken away

Years pass by
And the oppression dies
Nutrients are in supply
And now it’s time to arise

No longer feeling choked
By another weed
No longer provoked
By someone elses greed

You’re growing strong
Nothing but you can stop that
Just know that you belong
And don’t fear to combat

Your heart is kind
You know your true power
Once was confined
Is now a beautiful flower
