A Simple Stepping Stone

"Concrete sidewalk."

That is all I am.

A simple stepping stone

Stretched for miles and miles.

I have felt the treads of

Runners

Future doctors

Past presidents

Everyone.

But I...I am

Nothing.

I have helped people go

From place to place,

Famous people,

People who will change

The world.

But I am

Nothing.

Until...you.

You, a being that others call

A nuisance

Burden

Eyesore

A weed.

You broke through this

Wall of mine.

You planted your roots

Where they say nothing can

Grow...

And you grew.

You brought

Life

Light

Meaning

To me.

You, the weed,

Are the best of me.
