My Forever Flower

I once read; that if someone loves a flower, they should love it from a distance 

They should admire it, 

enrich in it, and 

Cherish it from afar! 

Just so as to not misplace it, 

taint it, or in anyway, bring about death to it, 

Detachment scar,

Or harm!  

For a flower that is loved from afar,

Is said to be loved the very best... 

Its presence alone is too blessed to be tampered with or uprooted... 

I will always love you (my forever flower) 

I willingly do so from arms length, 

with tear filled eyes and weeping lips 

Because If I could go back in time, I'd put all my trust in you (my forever flower) 

And commit my heart from petal...To stem...To original seed. 

Yet just seeing you stand firmly, 

sway steadily and blossom ever so graciously, 

regardless of storm...

Fills me with true inner peace... 

True inner peace indeed! 

Still See Her

I still see her everyday.
It's been a long time since we last talked,
But I don't think she has changed.
She still has the same smile that makes me oh so nervous,
And those eyes,
Man Oh man,
Those beautiful brown eyes,
That you can, so easily, get lost in.
She still has those cute cheeks that make you want to squish them when you see them,
And those hands,
That make you want to hold tight and never let go.
Those lips,
God those lips.
A hue of pink,
so luscious,
Tempting me to just kiss her.
But everytime I see her I have to look away,
Because, deep down, I know that she's moved on,
And even though my feelings for her haven't changed,
I know she's better off without me anyway...
