Sakura: the one I loved
In spring.
The cherry blossoms
invade the
sky like
pink
samurais.
Battles lost.
Tears shed.
Broken, the warriors
blanket the earth
in a million pieces.
In summer.
The cherries ripen.
The juice stains your lips
a sweet smeared rouge
the color of the pomegranates
that Hades fed Persephone.
If only she would stay
a little while longer.
If only I could touch you.
I think to devour your ripe lips.
In autumn.
The cherries fall.
Tumble to
the earth
red
Lucifers.
Tempt me.
Touch me.
More!
In winter.
Stark and naked,
the trees die
like the sentiment
that never escaped your lips
or the body
I never grasped
or even the tears
you were too proud to
let me see.
This is for you.
Shatter me still.
