the first time we met
you were daisies.
fragile
thin
soft
sweet
laughing in rain
running in wildflowers
resting there too
...then you were gone.
the next time
you were roses.
robust
sturdy
reserved
beautiful
running from the world
playing broken pianos
living in empty castles
...then you were gone.
the third time
you were violets.
delicate
cheerful
royal
drinking bitter petal tea
watching stars
dressing in diamonds
...then you were gone.
a fourth
a fifth
a sixth
i find you again
again
again
it's all different
every time.
but you never remember.
not me.
not until your last moments.
...and so it repeats.
eternally
