Flower

Topic: EmotionalPoetry

In the darkness of my mind, I began to a hear a tune
Not a visible tune, no, more like a flower in bloom
I reach out for a hand, and then she suddenly appears
Out of thin air, I don’t know, I am just glad she is here
My red vibrates, precariously, unaware of it’s surroundings
It wants to latch on to the tongue, but the saliva is not lasting
She has the curse of meaning, passion and joy
Takes sensible curves, and treats them as a toy
Steadily walks from square to square
Hoping that flesh will break out of thin air

I watch her, change her direction when she sees my face
The protruding brow, the eminent ear lobes, what a disgrace
And I wonder, is this like the elephant in the room?
Do we pretend nothing is there, because nothing is all we can persue?
We interlock joints, bare bones, because life is forever changing
I try to relax, but her body is constantly rearraging
So who do I grab hold of, my bud is breaking
I want to stay in bloom, but my sanity is for the taking
Hold onto what I know, and she holds on too
We both our out of our minds crazy, we don’t know what to do
Think back to distant memories, caving in, the words
We both know why we are here, we don’t have to think of verbs
In time, she gets up, moves her belongings and leaves
Leaves, leaves, leaves, I am getting weak in the knees
What will I do without her, where is the pain?
I feel it coming around the corner, am I just insane?
I feel sunlight creeping on my cheek like a worm to a hole
Where I this coming from? Is this another story told?
I feel the absence of her, so I stand around waiting
Until she grabs her pen and sits here fading

I am gone and feel lifeless, as I sit on top of these walls
Hoping someone would catch me if I happened to fall
She is gone, not here, and I want hear the sacred bells
But the sacred bells are lifeless, all I hear are yells
I am back in my insanity, back in the pain
I stop, pick up the page, and start all over again

OMG! I am at a total loss for words(that is hard to do to me I am always talking lol).

This write took me many places. Such detail and emotion.

I try to relax but her body is constantly rearranging...
WOW!!!!!!! Just one of many parts I love.

Incredible job here!
