The Withered Flower

Within The Lonely Garden

Although The Flower Seemed Capable

Inept It Became

Showering

Within The Darkness

Although The Flower Seemed Confident

Afraid The Flower Became

Of The Corruption

In Which It Lathers

You See

Something As Simple As A Flower

Is The Most Complex of All

Thrashing Inside Your Eyes

And As The Flower Takes Its Leave

Worrisome You Become

Unable To Think Your Clear Thoughts

And As The Sun Begins Its Descent

Unto This Poor Heartless World

Surrounded By Regret & Betrayal

Why As I Live & Breathe

My Poor Old Withered Flower

Leaning It Began

Into Its Withered Garden

& As It Lays Under The Sun As It Gravitates Towards This Lonely Earth

History

My Withered Flower Became
