“The Devil’s flower”


Knock! Exiled wanderer had you not? How often did you pulled the threatened nest? Misery will come with frightened sides. Where you will find yourself at great peak. Stolen among lovely stains, The girl you are holding is not well, Never with you falls nothing, Away! And you will find another sweetheart. Oh my eye more with you would make the saddest sides. If it were taken have our world sore, If it were bent fall will not rest, Never be blessed from above, You are no longer given! Yonder not for you have nothing, Hide and I will not seek, All fancy with your ears, Be frightened until you are old. So you ask who I am. I am a power among time, Fully worked to contradict, Ask me to please yourself. I am false, even, fancy, A half-awakened hollowed home, Although a great grandchild, I am your flower’s great Devil.

There are many things to know about me, and these things cannot be easily said in this short passage. You see, I believe personalities are so vast that you can't just say "I'm funny and smart" when you can be stupid and sad sometimes. Life has many meanings that you can't simply judge it with one word. Reading this, I know some of you would think "What does she mean? This is suppose to be a short bio not philosophy class!". In truth, I can't tell everything about me in a short bio. Therefore, I decided to express my full self on the poems I have created. My poems could be my opinions, personality, dreams, experiences and goals OR friends and my lost loved ones. Feel free to guess the hidden meaning of my poems, and use it as blocks if you wanted to know the REAL me.
