Rocco Parisella Poet Rhyme

LIKE FLOWERS BLOOM

LIKE FLOWERS BLOOM


Each time she tried
They fell to their death
From the ledge of her lip
To lie by her heart
Where they endlessly stared
Helplessly mute
They would never draw breath
A sacrifice to
The will of her pride
The gardens she walked
The gates rusted locked
Like hair grown Unkempt
The Ivy wound wild
Behind her she knew
The grasses tall grew
A serpent kept watch
She cried as he smiled
She lay back and bared
Her throat, slim and fair
Her buttons, she loosed
Her breasts to the skies
Violet and blue
Like flowers bloom
Bruised
A testament to
Those secrets, survived
A shadow, the sun
But rain, there was none
Pain was something
She learned as a child
