I May Bloom

by sirenity   Oct 28, 2007


I am a rose,
every part of me sprouting with joy,
but when my sun leaves,
i die because of you.

You cause my peddles to bleed,
my beauty to leave,
and my color to shed.

But when your shine lights on me,
i stand tall,
peddles and all,
my sent will flow,
and my color will show.

For that moment i live it up,
though i know it'll come to an end,
and I'll become dull without your beautiful shine,
and in the end will bloom.

    Interesting, in the first stanza there was a little confusion, but it just turned out to make the rest of the poem better. The tone changed mid-poem, which wasn't good or bad, but I think maybe you should have stuck to only one tone for it, or make the poem longer so the build-up will sink in better.
