Roses

You adorned my skin with roses 
A color that looked good on me
How is it that one man
Without lifting his finger 
Turned a broken soul 
Into the garden of Eden ? 

My lips, they sprout honeydews and peony 
A toothy smile with a kiss of acceptance 
How is it that one man
Without looking at my soul 
Turned my ravaged lips
To sing hymns of love ?


They mapped the origins of our soul into this human skin
The tattoos glow ever so brightly to continuously remind you
How perilous our existence is . To keep repeating a cycle of living 
To learn a lesson before dying 
Humans. To think you could have the power of every knowledge you desire 
If you only learned to find your soul. 





You adorned my head with roses 
Peonies and honeydews spewed from your smile
Dark russets looked up at me in full bloom
As I fell in love with what's mine 

-To fall in love with you again

Oh my friend, my familiar friend I've picked up this pen to write  Too many thoughts of you  Too many anger-filled words Too many sorrow...
