Blossom

A poem about transitioning from your younger self into your older self. The feelings that come with the uncertainty ofall the new firsts. The way your younger self will always be a guiding part of you

A pulsing heart and racing mind

A seeking soul that can't be confined

Black stains and splotches of rainbows

Who is she? No one knows.

Not herself or her deepest words.

Not even the tiny birds.

 

Her mind is escaping while her mouth stays gaping.

Who is this part of her?

Who is this little girl?

Two beings blooming into one,

With tangled roots and cut off limbs.

With glistening petals and scratched skin.

A soul eager for life

A heart thirsty for the knife.

The knife of love, the knife of regret.

Whoever she lets hold the knife , Has the power to drain her life.

 

He could destroy the tiny cords in her heart and empty the vessel that bursts with light; even so she'll put up a fight

Where ever the knife lands she will take her stand.

Because deep inside this new bud, there is an old flower full of love.

Within her she blooms and blooms until she soothes away the blues

Her dewy skin will lift the stain

Her soft voice will ease the pain

Because deep below on her roots is the girl who bloomed the fruit

Feel within her is the essence of her soul

With her she can stay in control .

 

New paths and dangerous crossroads

Jagged hearts and severed veins

No matter what her heart will love again.

 

Deep within the garden somewhere a flower blossoms.

The top is fresh and cute as could be

But the roots run deeper than the sea.

With the two blooming together there is a constant tether. No matter how far she floats a little whisper will always hit her. With that note she'll comeback down

With that love she can always be found.

 

A loving heart and curious mind

An adventurous soul that can't be confined

Laughing pains and splotches of rainbows

Who is she? Who cares let's her grow.

You write some long poems, it seems. Very well done, though. Keep it up! :)
