Hmmm - sometimes my brain just decides to have spurt of creativity when it is least needed, ie. in the lead up to exams when i'm meant to be cramming. A few words/phrases started sticking in my head and so strangely enough, the output is in poetic form. Anyway, enjoy (and be depressed, inspired or whatever)... Feedback/constructive criticism appreciated.
strolling past
hearing "sigh" -
what it is?
but simple
innocent
carnation.
but why sigh
"notice me?"
not needed
softness is
beauty is
natural
attraction.
why sigh?
tis i
that sigh
at chance meeting
of Your Pinkness
a blossoming
desire of love
blooming gently
exhaling life
warming gloom of
faded sunrise.
again she sigh
exuding thin
mist into air.
why sigh? o why?
rescue thy from
weedy neighbours
protective knight
or nourisher?
rationalism now. *sigh*
she,
a piteous pink
so beauteous
must not be removed,
plucked or saved.
cutting, she weeps, wilts.
touching, she's crushed, pressed.
wafting, she loses fragrance, life.
nay, lose-lose situation.
*sigh*, why sigh,
for an undeserving mortal?
beauty induced depression
time tortured emotion
means I must not interfere.
she,
is best left to flourish
never a tall poppy,
but maturing conservatively
from her nutrient rich roots.
she,
should not be taken,
even for a heart-to-heart message
of love and devotion.
she,
must only be caressed by the
sensitive warmth of the sun,
needs to be enjoyfilled
with a gentle loving stare,
for us to place specially
within our hearts,
thriving in our memory forever.
weatherproof
impenetrable
resistant to fire, wind, rain, light, force.
nothing gets to me.
unemotional
unmovable
watch the world be born
watch the world die.
but humankind has the power to break me.
chip away, see what you can find.
the stony exterior will
eventually reveal the heart.
blood from this stone may be shed.
