And given the right circumstances

GROWTH

I have seen two people who were growing together
Begin to grow separately
In and of life
And I asked myself
How could this be?
This just didnโ€™t make sense to me

Yet
Upon further reflection, I found
That two people can grow
Stronger or weaker
Together or apart
And still influence each otherโ€™s growth
In and of life

They can even be growing
In the same direction
And yet
Be growing in different ways

And given the right circumstances
They can begin
To grow together again
In and of life

The experiences they gain
While growing stronger or weaker
Together or separately
Can shape them
To grow even stronger
Together or apart
In and of life
In the end
