a single flower

If there stood a single flower in the center

of a wasteland expanding eternally outwards,

more readily would i pluck it from its wary essence

than i would surrender my memories of you.

 

If death stood before me,

and i had yet one word of plea to continue my existence,

a proclamation of my love for you would grace the reapers ears.

 

If our world were plagued by a cancer,

and the stars fell from the sky i would not care.

I see more stars in your eyes than could ever exist.

 

I have heard poets proclaim their loves before.

In them they see the majesties and wonders

of our universe reflected in their ladies.

I walk the roads of earth, witnessing miracles

and spectacular beauties and every time

i am only reminded of you.
