Poem Title:
Poem
Oh dear Rose, you prickle me That if I do so much but breathe I will be full of scars and pain Though I love to see your beauty close I cannot out of vain Oh dear Rose, you wounded me And even if this pulse do beat with you I cannot touch but by just look The stronger I want this feeling to go The longer my pain to heal took Oh dear Rose, you make me weep You go in cadence with the meadow That I want so much to give caress Though your arms, so near to grasp I do not but watch you less Oh dear Rose, you give me grief I am longing for you in ages But you come and hurt me again This heart, this love may not be strong But yet I cannot pull away then Oh dear Rose, my dearest Rose, you'd make me die That you memory stays too long enough for mine And I cannot contain what is inside I try to run away from your face But then I get scared without you and your embrace But dear Rose - don't make me forget That there is a sun though she hides That there is life though I died That there will be more happiness than sorrow And a rainbow will shine on the bright tomorrow ========================================== Flowers Contest 10th Place Written by: Jan Camille Tongco P.s. Although I know I am going against the no-rhyme, free verse only rule, I still would like to try. Hope this takes the sting of winter away. Thanks
