Deformed Rose Poem by Seema Aarella

Deformed Rose

Rating: 4.8


I cover in the murky cleft
Like an ugly owlet
Frightened by the neighing
Steeds of sun, that foraged
My garden with its lofty hoofs
Leaving behind a debris
Of mutilated dreams

Quandaries mushroom on
The mossy floor infected
By virus of doubts cultivated
In darkness of my mind
Dispelled of sunlight,
Confiscated off the basic
Aeration of positive beliefs

Insanely enough my feelings
Plunge to untimely death
Crashing on the boulders
Of toughening fortune,
Dumping my broken heart
To wail in unbounded grief
Like a parted mourning dove

In the thick congestion of
Surfacing wrinkles on
The face of my proud youth
Pain draws an unchanging frown
A tear breaks out insignificantly,
Unnoticed like a deformed rose
Disregarded by the flashy world.
