You're Not an Seed

Pond

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
