February Poetry Contest - Where We Bloom

Among the flowers,

I feel at home.

When life's just too much

it's here I roam.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3jLpHoEZS

Alone and free with blooms so sweet,

I almost don't hear the sound of feet.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfv3VW80wMv

I jump, for behind me

I see another girl,

her amber eyes nervous

and her dark hair curled.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SDQdoGkvK

She waves to me,

passing over a smile,

and asks if she can

sit here a while.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZQ1bt2C5s

I'm tentative to answer,

for this is my place,

but still I move over

and give her some space.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLxHolzoMUX

For hours we sit in

comfortable silence

away from the world

in a field of roses and violets.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdB3RAFen1G

The day turns to dusk as

the sky paints itself red,

and the girl moves to get up

but I tell her to stay instead.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFoZR4DqBt

I've never felt as comfortable as I had with she,

not with man nor woman

but only in her company

I crave to be.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXhc4h6ESB

In a wistful tone,

she denies my request,

she has a husband at home

and going home is best.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtHX84UcOz

My chest feels heavy but

I nod and bid her farewell,

for how would this angel stay here

when she has a husband with which to dwell.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanqLKeOaQF

Still the next day, she visits

and the day after that,

staying longer and later

each time, to either be quiet or chat.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCypHaSWI77

The seasons turn as always,

our flowers wilting from cold,

as I watch my heart feels heavy,

but she pulls me into her hold.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEJ28zmvY1

"I won't stop seeing you,

flowers or not,

their view is less important

than meeting you in this spot."

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtkttOmgypd

"But your husband-"

I start, but she brings me closer,

her lips on my forehead and

her hand on my shoulder.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdSMz8o695

"Didn't you hear me?"

She asks in a whisper.

"I Like being with you,

plus your a much better listener.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3aQITBcNtp

I've not told you before,

but he is not who I love.

I was forced to betroth him,

pushed to it, shoved.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVnP8sA7K5

He doesn't love me either,

he wanted no wife,

but it was either we marry

or risk our parents' strife!"

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcjX7pZgoJ

At her confession,

I squeeze her in my arms,

not caring of consequences,

my mind hazy with stars.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkx8i5EGyLr

I press a kiss to her lips,

tears staining my cheeks,

how long could she have been

wanting me?

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGuBOAfZaSL

This is wrong, isn't it?

We are both women.

How can she love me if

I'm driving her to sinning?

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i9VKtYo1S

That night, she doesn't go back

but lays in the grass,

as dawn's light

over our bodies will cast.

217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMifqhHBko

This is the beginning,

that is verified,

but one day I hope our relationship

won't be to this meadow confined.
