The Garden
Delicate petals holding all our secrets, desires; fell to the ground and died of thirst.
With every look.
Every breath.
Every kiss and every touch.
-Stolen moments.
We planted the seed.
Flowers grew; the most exquisite.
Our world intoxicated by the aroma of colours.
Fresh and new.
One by one.
Unanswered questions lingered in the air.
Delicate petals holding all our secrets, desires; fell to the ground and died of thirst.
Craving the tears that were missing from your eyes.
Thorns exposed, bursting through your heart and right through my soul.
Once the flower in my heart;
Forever the thorn in my side.

Feelings Never Die
It is Valentine's Day again, and it bought back memories that were over fifty years old. It bought me back to 1971, and I woke up and I knew my baby was due today. I was big and pregnant, and I felt like I was about to burst wide open. Imagine my surprise when the doctor told my I had a due date of February 14. I couldn't believe it, and since my baby was due today, I felt I could indulge myself a bit. I had gained a lot of weight, and chocolate was on the no-no list, but I had came to the end of this pregnancy, and I hoped it would be okay, after all I would deliver this baby today. So I walked across the street to the grocery story, and bought myself, a peppermint patty, covered in chocolate, my favorite. Me and my Valentine's baby would enjoy it together.
