Blossom of Love

Sing me my favorite song I have blossomed to life.

It is true, I was beaten and tossed to the ground,

it is true, I was screaming yet hurt by the sound.

But rooted was my faith and rooted was my mind,

rooted to the blessings of the divine.

Did you not see my flowers bloom through the night?

Or my flower when it sprang in delight?

For bountiful is now the works of my hand,

the new butterfly whose cocoon was scarred.

Yes, yes I am dancing in light,

Sing me my favorite song, I have blossomed to life.
