February Poetry Contest - Where We Bloom

Among the flowers,

I feel at home.

When life's just too much

it's here I roam.

Alone and free with blooms so sweet,

I almost don't hear the sound of feet.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9B2lPL1aSu

I jump, for behind me

I see another girl,

her amber eyes nervous

and her dark hair curled.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRvBAdYdmN

She waves to me,

passing over a smile,

and asks if she can

sit here a while.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8K5rCi75T1

I'm tentative to answer,

for this is my place,

but still I move over

and give her some space.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDwOnmZidN

For hours we sit in

comfortable silence

away from the world

in a field of roses and violets.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVOXDOUH3J

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.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd45UQlAjxW

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.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvkY6XrU7Q6

In a wistful tone,

she denies my request,

she has a husband at home

and going home is best.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTO4Xv8QPU

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.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡac9WFadhiX

Still the next day, she visits

and the day after that,

staying longer and later

each time, to either be quiet or chat.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZaVQh6JeD0

The seasons turn as always,

our flowers wilting from cold,

as I watch my heart feels heavy,

but she pulls me into her hold.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqiwOBbzWX

"I won't stop seeing you,

flowers or not,

their view is less important

than meeting you in this spot."

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z3CmP63xl

"But your husband-"

I start, but she brings me closer,

her lips on my forehead and

her hand on my shoulder.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAKMsxyT4R

"Didn't you hear me?"

She asks in a whisper.

"I Like being with you,

plus your a much better listener.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4rC0f4tZw

I've not told you before,

but he is not who I love.

I was forced to betroth him,

pushed to it, shoved.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rPoIsx60z

He doesn't love me either,

he wanted no wife,

but it was either we marry

or risk our parents' strife!"

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubCfQd0vcx

At her confession,

I squeeze her in my arms,

not caring of consequences,

my mind hazy with stars.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0GXWCLXE7

I press a kiss to her lips,

tears staining my cheeks,

how long could she have been

wanting me?

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMGwcMMLhW

This is wrong, isn't it?

We are both women.

How can she love me if

I'm driving her to sinning?

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjwcp3tSey

That night, she doesn't go back

but lays in the grass,

as dawn's light

over our bodies will cast.

311Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDwkh5A2sD

This is the beginning,

that is verified,

but one day I hope our relationship

won't be to this meadow confined.
