free verse (2)

Oct 13, 2006 17:45

soft things beg for
just a touch,
but i cannot be
free for all
save one.
(or so i thought)
this before
i gave it
away.
a wilted rose,
a preemie born,
petals dead
flower gone
the child does not
lift its head.

I am quite blown away.

I can't even tell you how beautiful this is. It evokes sensation, emotion, that "I can't quite articulate it with words, but my heart understands" feeling.

I love this, and I love you.
