Anonomus Scorpio Poet Rhyme

Listen to poem:

Skeleton flower

So much time has passed by; without an offer, to explain
Why open up; it seems my words are only found in vain
If only I was rare; a woodland, skeleton flower
Giving my heart transparency; within a nature shower
Or if I were a window; perhaps, one not made of glass stain
It would likely be just as easy to pass, right by my pain
Please grow away from me; Diphylleia Grayi
My sad heart buried alive will show you the way
Just as rain causes your umbrellas, to transparentize
Showing my vulnerability is not so easy; to symbolize

Paige Hind January 15, 2024 at 5:59 PM A deep sense of melancholy here, hurt... I wish you hugs and lots of lights for your muse. I learned about that flower for the first time...thanks <3 Anonomus Scorpio January 15, 2024 at 7:08 PM As always you can not appreciate the light, if you don't first accept the dark. The transparency of the skeleton flower is a beautiful metaphor for being misunderstood emotionally. That's what I'm trying to convey that if it was just as simple as moistening your skin for people to be able to see your true heart it would be nice to be seen that way. You hit the nail on the head it's about expressing melancholy. With enigmatic warmth A.S.
