The Fault

To lie in vain to rest 
in a bed beautified by flowers, 
was not at ease nor peace. 
As the frequent flowering 
to a hearts grave 
was of the bride married to its death. 

She who made my love selfish 
to cage a heart in its chest, 
and love only by flesh 
to cherish to perish love's delights. 

     BITTER SWEET 
Now it art in deep soils of the grave. 
Only water was at need, 
And the mother earth breast fed 
all its need and craves. 
Breaking the water, due was a heart 
moving in a heart called a home. 
        UNBROKEN IN VULNERABILITY
