Flowers Poem by Julian Takali

Flowers



Her hand grips the lighter
Mine holds a cigar
She is a blade
I but a scar

This all then means
For her I would
Burn and bleed
If I could

For pain unmasked
Is a better joy
Next to a laugh
Smeared by coy

As to truly love
Is not to steal
But much rather
Let the flower breath

All tulips,
All roses,
All violets,
Have not the scent of life
If you cut their soul with your knife
