make me a rosegarden.

 

 

I hid behind smiles and flattery,

begging realisation to capture your lips

and take us away, somewhere

but it never came.


I did promise that I'd leave roses in the rain,

but I hate to dampen something so beautiful

and allow it to decay.

[I wish I could say the same for us.]



I can't rewind the clocks

but I can place whispers in your ears

and promise nextime will be different -

even if it wont

I owe us this much.


I wanted difference

and found beauty in obscurity

and that makes me a surrealist poet,

I've heard

but am not that sure anymore.

Life taught me how to open gifts first

and hearts second -

it's advice I'd like to pass on at least once.

    Yes.

    This piece is like a punch in the gut. Verrry well written. The emotion is there. The images are there. Absolutely beautiful.


    Thank you for entering♥
