A Crack in the Concrete

By Donna Ashworth

All you need

is a crack in the concrete.

To reach up,

reach through,

find sunlight,

find rain.

To escape the darkness,

find air,

again.

You were planted my friend and somewhere along the way,

you became buried deep.

You were supposed to thrive,

not be buried alive.

All you need is a crack in the concrete.

Keep searching.

Cracks are everywhere,

All you have to do is find one.

Just one.
