pink tulips

January 31, 2026

an everlasting light in my darkest days

an Eternal lifetime too short

for the one who carries the scent

of pink tulips

galaxies clash together billions of years away

their inevitable collide is

for me and

the one who carries the scent

of pink tulips

fragrances so bold and independent

vibrant and soft spoken

thank you for allowing me to smell

the scent of your pink tulips

an everlasting light in my darkest days

bright as the sun

for i am Icarus

i'll fly toward you just to feel your

light kiss upon me

and my smile never falters as i fall for

i am still in the Prescence of

your sun still shining on my face

and i remember the scent

of your pink tulips

▾ This Poem's Voice

Personal devotion to specific person; concrete imagery (pink tulips) grounds abstract emotions.

Multiple layered ideas: love, mortality, cosmic scale, sacrifice myth, sensory memory interwoven densely.

Overwhelmingly positive despite fall/sacrifice; light, gratitude, devotion dominate emotional landscape throughout.

Dynamic imagery: galaxies clash, Icarus flies, sun burns; movement and intensity sustain throughout.

Approximately 24-26 lines depending on line breaks; falls within 16-30 range.

Rich metaphors (light, sun, Icarus myth), similes (bright as sun), personification (fragrances independent).

Pure lyric interior voice; first-person intimate meditation without narrative or dramatic persona shift.
