Hitting rock bottom
He lays in the dirt
Fed up with this life
Broken and hurt

He lays there motionless
All alone
This spot in the dirt
His new home

The waters poured on
He draws his last breath
Surly he will
Drown to death

Lying there thoughts
That this isn’t right
The little seed should have
Drown tonight

Looking around
At how the rest have grown
Failures in life
Is all that he’s known

Sinking farther and farther
Into depression each day
He woulda drowned that night
If he had his way

He’s such a failure
His destiny’s doomed
The only seed
That hasn’t bloomed

And then one day
He looks and sees
The beautiful flower
He’s become to be

All the beauty he let
Slip before his eyes
He himself holds
He comes to realize

Happy and free
Escaped from the dark
This little seed
Now has a new start

He looks back to that time
He wanted to end the fight
And for the first time, he’s happy
He didn’t drown that night
