FlowersA Poem by Madeleine Rose
There's a storm inside my head
Killing all the flowers So I moved them to my chest And now I can't even breath There were seeds I wanted to plant But I knew the soil wasn't fertile So I let them die in my pocket You handed me a flower And trusted me with it But now I'm afraid that it's gonna wither And end up decomposing in the grass I'm afraid you're gonna realize That the most beautiful flowers have thorns And the sweetest have the most bugs The most gorgeousflowers take root in the mud My roots are unclean and dirty Yet what you see is sweet and pure Soon I'll return to where I'm from My petals will wither and die My scent will go away And not a single person will remember that sweet flower © 2016 Madeleine Rose |
