Little Flower

You were my flower.

I picked you.

Little flower,

beautiful and bright,

soft and light.

Tenderly you rested

In my open hands

Little flower.

Your gentle petals

caressed my scarred palms

Your colors stained me

and made me lovely again.

But oh,

Little flower,

I knew you could not last.

Your colors faded away

your petals dried out

I watched you evanesce

In my very own hands.

But do not fret,

Little flower.

you colors,

your fragrance,

your memory

lives on

pressed between the pages of my heart.


Je t'aime, petite fleur.
