Lost Love


Roses

A blossom of red

But alas

The hand holding it is dead

 

A blossom of life

upon her cheeks

Without her life

your tears do streak

 

down your face

with post haste

you go to her side

without a second thought

you can not even hide

 

Your feelings are upon her

your words fall to her ears

but still, alone with only her

she still can not hear.

 

If only she had listened

if only she had known

perhaps she wouldn’t have left

to be all alone.

I write poems in my spare time. I love writing in general as well, but I tend to only write bits and pieces when I have time instead of actually taking a full segment of time to write.
