Flowers
Mystifying
Hypnotic
Unmatched
She may appear like a dull leaf
Her outlines fading
Yelling for the dark to ignite
Ripping her heart shred by shred
Voices drown her own
Riot clawing her instead of revolution
Tired of being stomped upon
This may be the end of her
Nevertheless, she holds on.
Because there is more than anyone can visualize
As to every shadow there is a light
To every mark there is a remover
The season of blooming has now begun
Leaving every mouth a gap
Every soul dumbfounded
Her wings will mesmerize some
While petrify others
Her scent travels from perspective to perspective
Until it finds reason
Some look up to her
Others long for her to crumble
But she fans their jealously miles away
The surface of the never-ending monster inside, now in sight
It’s only a matter of breaking free
Liberty shall rein her life
The universe inside her, shall be displayed
So bring forth caution and awareness
Because this beauty is about to spread its wings
Alas, this may be the end of you.
