Rose of dishonesty

A poem about a token of love but without the emotion behind it, like the token, it will fade.


Poem Artwork

A race to save the feeling

Of pure initial bliss

A token to light a fire within

That started with our kiss

Petals open wide

Brightening up the gloom

A kaleidoscope of colours

Beauty in full bloom

But those dark familiar feelings

They creep into my head

Poisoned winds of yesterday

Blowing til buds are dead

For love is like a flower

It only grows with trust

Without pure honesty

It withers into dust

If beauty is one part simplicity and one part elegance, man you just nailed it. This one deserves a bit WOW!

So descriptive of what we call the elusive nature of "love."
