February Poetry Contest - Where We Bloom

Among the flowers,

I feel at home.

When life's just too much

it's here I roam.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc4Z7RiKdM

Alone and free with blooms so sweet,

I almost don't hear the sound of feet.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk61QKj1VE

I jump, for behind me

I see another girl,

her amber eyes nervous

and her dark hair curled.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJ4YZfDP3F

She waves to me,

passing over a smile,

and asks if she can

sit here a while.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXttTIt6Hs9

I'm tentative to answer,

for this is my place,

but still I move over

and give her some space.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9XH2dr7Rd

For hours we sit in

comfortable silence

away from the world

in a field of roses and violets.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfPtlZ6UfK

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.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaaEZzW8mnd

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.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡliMNtJhK69

In a wistful tone,

she denies my request,

she has a husband at home

and going home is best.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uO0CjUFGs

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.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp20wIx0I8h

Still the next day, she visits

and the day after that,

staying longer and later

each time, to either be quiet or chat.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMwwl6Iomc

The seasons turn as always,

our flowers wilting from cold,

as I watch my heart feels heavy,

but she pulls me into her hold.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAmEu0LaNV

"I won't stop seeing you,

flowers or not,

their view is less important

than meeting you in this spot."

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWq6e7LwoFX

"But your husband-"

I start, but she brings me closer,

her lips on my forehead and

her hand on my shoulder.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBzfH8tLxS

"Didn't you hear me?"

She asks in a whisper.

"I Like being with you,

plus your a much better listener.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1l1bTUp0C

I've not told you before,

but he is not who I love.

I was forced to betroth him,

pushed to it, shoved.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHDPdBNcZa

He doesn't love me either,

he wanted no wife,

but it was either we marry

or risk our parents' strife!"

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyiTLaPLPT

At her confession,

I squeeze her in my arms,

not caring of consequences,

my mind hazy with stars.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqBOaEgBLX

I press a kiss to her lips,

tears staining my cheeks,

how long could she have been

wanting me?

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcGlCalXHKo

This is wrong, isn't it?

We are both women.

How can she love me if

I'm driving her to sinning?

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfceRvxBrul

That night, she doesn't go back

but lays in the grass,

as dawn's light

over our bodies will cast.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡje0pPdLA6o

This is the beginning,

that is verified,

but one day I hope our relationship

won't be to this meadow confined.
