Bouquet of pink roses wrapped in conversations
All I wanted was to see you happy and fill the vase
Your door will never be wide open for this affection
But I'm happy that I'm allowed at the doorstep place
Because I'm the lucky winner of past rejections
I'm bad at connecting strings and keeping bonds
Yet the doorbell still rings a welcoming sound
And when I stand on the welcome mat, the world warms
Because I'm the lucky winner in your embracing arms

Wait in your eyes
Looking out of window
Few minutes seem like forever

That restless walk
That slight nod of head
The noisy and the sensitive

The nearing footsteps
The wait is over
Door opens and you're in my arms

"My four legged friend
Your treats are here
And yes I love you too!"
Dry blooms have purpose

Beautiful fading flowers

Knowledge is their seed
I know I have been doing a lot of these recently. This one is done to the traditional format. Each line should stand independently and yet work as a whole.

Does it have to be always
this painful
truth vs harmony
no, honey
look
be true to yourself so you'll be
in harmony
always
in harmony
with
Yourself

Huge epic moment of insight for me tonight
Slow down,
What are you running from?
Wait now.
What are your demons?
Rest child.
I promise the sun will come out
in the morning.
Just believe in yourself.
You can make it through.
I don't think this is complete. Something recently that just came to me after a long period of not writing.
They used to
'dig for victory'

and
some would dig
and call it archaeology

I dug the cakes that
grandma baked for tea
and
shovelled them down.
Around the circle
Inner that circle

You do a miracle
We do an angle

To keep my heart
Waking and could jail

As he gained a fault
Dream you at night

You would come
Telling me at sight

Thanks to your God
As we met

At wide fate
Before we meet
At our time
the fate wrote its words and the hearts meet at soon
