February Poetry Contest - Where We Bloom

Among the flowers,

I feel at home.

When life's just too much

it's here I roam.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvIpmRF7zd

Alone and free with blooms so sweet,

I almost don't hear the sound of feet.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUFThmbBZE6

I jump, for behind me

I see another girl,

her amber eyes nervous

and her dark hair curled.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQJxyGbhhJ

She waves to me,

passing over a smile,

and asks if she can

sit here a while.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5jOjwavZZ

I'm tentative to answer,

for this is my place,

but still I move over

and give her some space.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vlTsFCuG4

For hours we sit in

comfortable silence

away from the world

in a field of roses and violets.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhdgElMoIqT

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.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANLehVb51Y

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.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9Y5toEbNh

In a wistful tone,

she denies my request,

she has a husband at home

and going home is best.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnk0TD6GMRW

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.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipTq96LQXZ

Still the next day, she visits

and the day after that,

staying longer and later

each time, to either be quiet or chat.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyu1uxPBJa

The seasons turn as always,

our flowers wilting from cold,

as I watch my heart feels heavy,

but she pulls me into her hold.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevbjzRnTvE

"I won't stop seeing you,

flowers or not,

their view is less important

than meeting you in this spot."

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhWYhgAF30

"But your husband-"

I start, but she brings me closer,

her lips on my forehead and

her hand on my shoulder.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0Gf1WPYGt

"Didn't you hear me?"

She asks in a whisper.

"I Like being with you,

plus your a much better listener.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBgcRlqr4D

I've not told you before,

but he is not who I love.

I was forced to betroth him,

pushed to it, shoved.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1krPrLZnZy

He doesn't love me either,

he wanted no wife,

but it was either we marry

or risk our parents' strife!"

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoLuOb1ki6

At her confession,

I squeeze her in my arms,

not caring of consequences,

my mind hazy with stars.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL4X9qkT15

I press a kiss to her lips,

tears staining my cheeks,

how long could she have been

wanting me?

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNejQhG9DXZ

This is wrong, isn't it?

We are both women.

How can she love me if

I'm driving her to sinning?

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogsQ0ZYvJX

That night, she doesn't go back

but lays in the grass,

as dawn's light

over our bodies will cast.

250Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQNueqb3fb

This is the beginning,

that is verified,

but one day I hope our relationship

won't be to this meadow confined.
