• Love is Like Flowers

    Your kisses are great,
    Your touch is always gentle.
    You say that your a freak of nature,
    I say your just mental.

    Your at the top of my list,
    The bottom of my hate.
    You hate our pasts,
    You are no Kate.

    When i tell you,
    I love you.
    I meant it,
    I really do.

    The past is the past,
    You are my future.
    Will we be together forever?
    I'm not so sure.

    I have almost lost you once,
    I waited for what seemed like hours.
    So silent and dreary,
    Our love is like flowers.

    The silence was trying,
    Almost unbearable.
    The pain I learned there,
    That pain is unsharable.

    I sit here and cry,
    For a dark and dismal reason.
    If you ask me why,
    I'll say,"Maybe its the season."

    Deep cuts,
    Beneath my jeans.
    I dab one with a rag.
    The wound opens and screams.

    Then,
    The blood comes streaming.
    Another dab,
    The salt is stinging.

    The phsical pain:
    Its always masked.
    The emotional pain:
    I won't telll if you asked.

    One day you will lose me,
    I won't jump out of the showers.
    It would be silent and dreary,
    Because our love is like flowers.
