001 - A poem


Oh, Love,

I like to think that beauty outshines the madness -
that petals are more brilliant than thorns
could ever be potent.

Maybe that’s how you’ve managed to keep me alive
for so long with nothing more than a glass jar,
a handful of dirt, some water, and a spoonful of lullabies
filled with nothing but the utmost adoration.

Oh, Love,

You truly are made of the sun's brilliance
to find me as radiant as this rose -
glorious, cheerful yellow

like your own rays dancing through the room
landing on every heart with the simplicity of
a butterfly's kiss, and the epitome
of hope needed now more than ever.
