Flamboyant Flowers of Anguish
Flamboyant petals of flowers of anguish
Blossom in full bloom in your garden
Sworn your seasons and reasons for bliss to finish
Your favourite abode and space in the garden of Eden
Flowers of anguish vow at all costs to steal
Sowing and catalyzing sterling seeds of sorrow
Grown and scattered in every cranny and crevice at full capacity to fill
Your every tomorrow
Into your bludgeoned back pricking, sinking and sticking daggers
Whose blade
Singes, serrates and severs your fingers
Purloining your serene serenade to aid
Seas and vortices of pain
Shaken
Sustaining, absorbing and assimilating streams and reams of strain
Forsaken and beaten
Your teary bloodshot eyes peer into a despair abyss
Wondering if life in your case holds any more worth
As peace of mind you miss in a serpent’s hiss
When all at once a vivid voice on the radio reminds you henceforth
God is in control
Despatching at once a good Samaritan your way
To patrol
And heal all flowers of anguish as on your knees you bend to pray.
