For Good

Anchored in connection

Sharing pieces of our soul

Every cell redirected

Establishing roots as we grow

Blending with one another

Twisted and inseparable

Tangled like a lover

Becoming one is immeasurable

Traces of each other

Blends into our own dna

Like a mother and daughter

Cells are changed by the same

Connections so intense

They change us down to our roots

Limbs twisting to bend

Not even science can refute

Recreating ourselves

From the inside out

Root systems and cells

Together surviving the drought

Intended to blend making our lifetimes longer

One begins where one ends

Making our lineage stronger
