words by @lostboyspoetry • "The task of reaching another’s soul is no different than that of tending to a garden—the garden of their soul. It’s no easy feat and there’s no quick reward. You have to journey through the weeds, the rocks, the rough & tough roots buried deep through years of living and hurting and growing. You have to be willing to water the parts that have withered, dried, and grown hardened & stubborn. Be willing to shed light on the parts that have only come to know and recognize the dark. Talk to, nurture, and seek to understand the needs of the parts still left that are willing to grow. - It’s messy. It’s complicated. It’s frustratingly hard. It takes patience. It takes consistency. It takes work. The process, for both gardener and the gardened, is not without its difficulties. And there’s absolutely no way to keep your hands from getting dirty. In fact, the goal is to not just get your hands dirty, but the entirety of you dirty too. You have to be willing to go all in. Then, and only then, will you reap the sweet and juicy fruits of their soul. You cannot hope to remain dirt free while tending to their soil garden—it doesn’t work that way." • • • (#ThePoetsList, #GetListed, #poetry, #poetrycommunity, #spokenword, #poetsofinstagram, #poetsofig, #writer, #writers, #writersofinstagram, #writersofig, #writerscommunity, #poem, #poems, #poet, #poets, #quote, #quotes, #poetsociety, #snapsnap, #poeticjustice, #teenpoetry, #teenpoet, #posts, #words, #writing, #message, #poetsoninstagram)
