I think its time to stop and smell the roses again
Even though
As I pick one
I bleed
The blood trickles down my fingers
And becomes sacred drops
Of essence
A imprinted bottle
I put this red liquid in
Labelling it
Lack of fear…
Pain is temporaryI can't help but clench the roses
Still…
In taking senses
Of newness
Fresh air
&
Spring
Blood now pours in buckets…
from fingers
But the pleasure of life
Of love
And smell
Looks past
A single angst
It's the moment
That always mattered
It
Still
ALWAYS
Matters
