Never knowing one demands,
Never understanding one seeks their desires,
Pleasure at the thought of what lies a head,
One seeks to please yet causing pain instead,
Never realizing one seeks the dream,
A dream slipping away,
A mistake not understood,
She seeks freedom, spreading wings,
To carry away the pain raging within,
Never knowing one demands,
Pleasure he seeks the dream,
A heart racing at the thought,
A smile at the power that lays at her feet,
He only seeks one yet his dream slips away
Because he failed to understand
She does not have the strength to demand,
She does not fight to win because she seeks flight,
Giving in she steals the dream,
Running to hide the pain and shame within.

Camellia
piercing winter gloom camellia blooms softly such a lovely sight. In winter, in the arboretum and the yards in our region, camellias blooms. Camellia is a tea family plant with lovely flowers. In Japan, camellias have been painted very frequently. Here is one by me (watercolor).
