Wolfsbane
Amberlyn Walsh Aug 2015
Deadliest flower
Taking life but giving death
To all who come near

You did that to me
Both of you caused me such pain
And you don't know it

You were both so drunk
I doubt you remember it
Oh but I sure do

So many questions
Do you even know my name
Did you hear my 'No's

I was lucky right
Because it wasn't extreme
Not like in movies

Tell that to my mind
Explain that to my conscience
But I won't listen

I know what happened
Everyday it's on my mind
I have been poisoned

Violets
Amberlyn Walsh Oct 2015
Lilac winter skies
My warm skin against cold fists
Handprints left on me

Purple finger prints
Embedded into my arm
That's how you showed love

Loved you in the fall
Was scared of you by winter
Stayed until summer

Science has told me
In seven years, I'll have skin
Never touched by you

Patiently waiting
For the day filled with relief
That will never come

Forget Me Nots
Amberlyn Walsh Jul 2015
How could you do this
Forget me so easily
Like I was nothing.

Toss me like a ****
All because you are afraid
But that is your loss.

It makes my head spin
I have shed countless teardrops
This isn't easy.

As the days go on
I have to try to let go
Try to move forward.

Roses
Amberlyn Walsh Aug 2015
What you were at first
Was a beautiful red rose
A breath of fresh air

What you then became
Was a vengeful pointed thorn
Quick to ***** my hand

Tearing me open
Drawing blood as red as you
Just to heal your wounds

You apologized
But I don't trust you at all
Who knows what were lies

So the lesson learned
Is beautiful red roses
All still have their thorns

Tulips
Amberlyn Walsh Sep 2015
Two sides, one being
Completely symmetrical
Seemingly perfect

But you know you aren't
Put you on the highest shelf
Just to watch you break

My undying trust
Faltering for a moment
And you now see that

Was this worth the stress
You have to work immensely
To gain what you lost

Don't let me down twice
Giving you a second chance
Two sides, two chances

— The End —
