Wildflower
Dervyn Amory Apr 2016
Night burning into day
Loneliness melting away
Trades of sleep for opportunity
Every moment and all its beauty
Anticipating a full bloom
Though settling for anything
Cause even the fragrance of the flower
A sweet sour
Makes living worth every breath
Pure bliss
Purer intentions
Finally a caress of the stem
Jagged fingers journey across soft thorns
Fearless and blessed with empathy
Misery loves company
But loneliness's desire devours all
And broken trust causes walls to form
Burn my days
Hour after hour
I'll live with the curse
To scour the corners of the earth
In search of the same wildflower
