Gardenia Blossomed

She inhaled the fragrance
Of gardenia encompassing her
As she sat in that Asian cafe,
Filling her lungs
As she closed her eyes,
This is what truth had brung.

This feeling so fresh
After the carnage
Of her bridges burnt past.

This new life
Had a soft,
Safe,
Pure vibe.
One she found she wanted
To wrap up inside.

Thinking to herself…

Is this how it feels
When you find
Your now?
