February Poetry Contest - Where We Bloom

Among the flowers,

I feel at home.

When life's just too much

it's here I roam.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiSxoVxGLr

Alone and free with blooms so sweet,

I almost don't hear the sound of feet.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv8ZK78XSo7

I jump, for behind me

I see another girl,

her amber eyes nervous

and her dark hair curled.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobaYPdGSIb

She waves to me,

passing over a smile,

and asks if she can

sit here a while.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB62qiPMYh

I'm tentative to answer,

for this is my place,

but still I move over

and give her some space.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYAnzBCedq

For hours we sit in

comfortable silence

away from the world

in a field of roses and violets.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPthhAuQ4j

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.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQblSKFEVU

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.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOwekxUqx4

In a wistful tone,

she denies my request,

she has a husband at home

and going home is best.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7QK9xaSdU

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.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyBNI0YVkd

Still the next day, she visits

and the day after that,

staying longer and later

each time, to either be quiet or chat.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuRxU0bZ4f

The seasons turn as always,

our flowers wilting from cold,

as I watch my heart feels heavy,

but she pulls me into her hold.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxGuU3jd8B

"I won't stop seeing you,

flowers or not,

their view is less important

than meeting you in this spot."

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YeNXCLTpE

"But your husband-"

I start, but she brings me closer,

her lips on my forehead and

her hand on my shoulder.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvZH4R4al9

"Didn't you hear me?"

She asks in a whisper.

"I Like being with you,

plus your a much better listener.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTbYbemkHm

I've not told you before,

but he is not who I love.

I was forced to betroth him,

pushed to it, shoved.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZxstA3YX3d

He doesn't love me either,

he wanted no wife,

but it was either we marry

or risk our parents' strife!"

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZf1Rbqpjya

At her confession,

I squeeze her in my arms,

not caring of consequences,

my mind hazy with stars.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjdi7gFLV0

I press a kiss to her lips,

tears staining my cheeks,

how long could she have been

wanting me?

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx4fyOpFIfN

This is wrong, isn't it?

We are both women.

How can she love me if

I'm driving her to sinning?

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzOxclOIQeX

That night, she doesn't go back

but lays in the grass,

as dawn's light

over our bodies will cast.

190Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3D0BYVQOH

This is the beginning,

that is verified,

but one day I hope our relationship

won't be to this meadow confined.
