darling, don’t bother buying roses
uprooted, torn from the fertile, nourishing earth
they only wither away, glazed with the mourning dew
another bus-ride write. again, not my best... i’ll prolly post again in a couple of weeks, midterms are coming up. it always made me sad when my dad bought my mom flowers. once, they were alight with life, the truest beauty. now confined to a clear water-filled vase, on display for the world, only to die days later. ty for reading. im going to try and stay away from  angsty love poems for my next couple of poems, maybe something happier ;)

^^quick note: mourning refers to tears and is a play on the word morning~
We used to
Play and run around
We used to
Make jokes
And laugh
Till we
Couldn't anymore
Happy times
We were
Always
One
Then you
Started to drift
Away
We tried to
Keep up
But
We fell apart
Eventually we
Parted ways
Not to see
Again
But
Then again
Crossed paths
Just for an instant
You forgot
Did I?
Never
But
It happens.
My requiem.

~Fin.
Thinking about the past
sun
the sun envies
the way your smile
shines and gives
warmth
to my body
more than it ever could.

This life consists of strange thoughts,
Unknown dreams,
Frustrating pantomimes
And undiscovered plots.
On this world,
There was only one possible picture
For each wall.
