I’ve Bought Flowers Poem by Uriah Hamilton

I’ve Bought Flowers

Rating: 5.0


You’re not far from this place,
But our separation is canyon-like.

Did you know I was grieved
For the sound of your voice
And the scent of your hair?

I’ve bought flowers
That I later tossed into the trash
Because I knew you would not accept them.

Spare, and beautiful. This one caused the hairs on my neck to rise. So perfect, so economical. - Will
