A sad flower sits
Wilted from the winded years
She lay below

Talented
Red
Ruby

Waiting for farmer to tell her to grow.

Does flower not know
The sun is already there?

Sweetness extends her chest
So Rare. She forgets.

Bees tanker
Raindrops gloat

Flower refuses to bloom.

Seasons pass by weary
Flower wilting just as soon
If your life is all about money,
Remember your death will be about leaving it all for others to enjoy.

There were tears in your eyes
the last time we said our goodbyes
and you held us
in your fatherly embrace
there at the airport
you were our escort

But now there are tears in our eyes
because why does it have to be your turn
to say goodbye?
all we are is just agonizing, endless rivers of sorrow
everyday wondering
if you'd still be there by tomorrow

in the
dry air between
the beauty of poetry
and one too many
poetic licenses.
You search for magic that swirls around your head, encapsulated by the stories told through your eyes, finding endless possibilities as you dance on cloud nine.
You smile because your loved , you laugh because your happy, you cry because life is beautiful, even through the darkest of times.

I don't feel special,
I'm not unique.
I want to cry
but I can't even speak.
My hands reach out,
but they cannot hold
a single thing
but the bitter cold.
Everything's frozen,
I feel lost.
Even my tears
have turned to frost.
When I cut my waist
it bleeds black.
I'm so deeply gone
there's no way back.
This is goodbye
I guess it was, but the tear fell anyway
I'm constantly
Breaking
Apart
But
I
Don't
Want to
Bother you
With the details
