Flower

Confessions of the Heart

By Steven ShakirPublished 8 years ago 1 min read

If I could plant a flower for every time I miss you,

I could walk through my garden forever.

The flowers blossoming and growing just as my love grew,

The care and protection of the flowers and your heart my only endeavour.

The unfurling petals revealing the sweet scent,

A perfect mirror image of your beauty and soul.

That past your beautiful exterior lies the treasures true content,

A sparkling intelligence and a caring white heart that makes you perfectly whole.

Your delicate and elegant figure is once again a reminder,

To the curves and shapes of a beautiful rose.

With tender, soft hands and a heart none could find kinder,

In the midst of my garden she lies and glows.

The one perfect flower

To which the others cower

With its perfect petal

Reinstates all mettle
