ROM615 Posted May 26, 2003 Report Share Posted May 26, 2003 Rose I hold the rose that often bled my hand, Never learning, listening, letting go. I held it through anguish, passion, demand, Crying crimson tears on fabric below. How long before I crush its frail petals? What might happen should I bleed no more? This bud, valued more than any metal Locked 'neath sands near my amorous shore. I lie so far and distant FROM forgotten bliss; Bound in a maze of unseen emptiness. Yet, through pain and conflict I shall still wish Your rose will bleed your hand no less; And that, if time and love may still permit, Your hand shall be my rose's last requite. Wish I wish I weren´t such a dreamer who dreams both day and night I wish I didn´t believe in angels floating softly through the moonlight I wish I didn´t believe things were meant to be or in fate and destiny I wish I weren´t so romantic as hopelessly as I am I wish I weren´t so naive and ignorant I wish I didn´t have such a fragile heart that falls, oh, so easily apart I wish I hadn´t fallen for you for I already knew I wouldn´t make it through If I weren´t such a dreamer who dreams both day and night I would live in reality and keep happiness close in sight If I didn´t believe in angels fallen FROM above I would not see one in every girl I, so-called, 'love' If I didn´t believe in 'meant to be' I wouldn´t count so much in fate and destiny If I weren´t so romantic, as hoplessly as I am, I would finally open my eyes and the world I would understand If I weren´t so ignorant and naive I would not give so much, with nothing to receive If I didn´t have such a fragile heart I would like it to stay that way without you breaking it apart If I didn´t fall for you I wouldn´t feel so down and blue If I wasn´t the person I turned out to be you would NEVER get the best of me! The Purple Orchid In my mind you are a purple orchid Exotic, tender, passionate and wild Untouchable, fragrant bloom of dark desires Evoking my deepest thoughts Lost in the dreamy wonder of an eastern forest You are there among the whispering glades Of soft green bamboo Delicately embracing the moist warm air of night A lover of another world Of fantasies ethereal, yet profoundly real Earthy, yet ether's child My chocolate sweetness in distant lands A darkened flower of defined passion My purple orchid Just a sampling. I'm not a great writer, but I enjoy it still the same. Mostly write about love / depression. But every now and then. I find something that just inspires me to write. Hope you all enjoy.
