Like an Amorphophallus titanum she has become. Desiring to be the queen of the garden, or dreaming to embellish the gardens of Japan. Sometimes pretending she’s dressed  in pastels and sweetness. “Magnolia”, she cries to me, I can hear the pain in her words,I see her soft tears. I look down, There’s  petals in the bathroom floor. I lick her lips, they taste like Desire, she desires me,I look at her brown eyes and I see how much she wants me, she wants me to be good to her, she wants me to make her feel beautiful again, I have failed her, I know I did. “I’m sorry” I ashamedly whispered still looking at her dark sad fire eyes.
