My love

My lung

My Light


I was a rose, blooming and bright

I flourished when your light was in sight

The color red is rushed to form blush

From the sweetly spoken words turning me into mush

I extended my arms to you when you were near

You were my lifeline, my dear 


My lock

My lie

My loss


The color of red from the heart you broke

Shattered to fragments of silk and impaled with the thorns you spoke

I shriveled and dried

Your light was not in sight for the petals that died

The petals of my love, my lung, my light

You allowed death to ignite
