February Poetry Contest - Where We Bloom

Among the flowers,

I feel at home.

When life's just too much

it's here I roam.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLQAwb44Ab

Alone and free with blooms so sweet,

I almost don't hear the sound of feet.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJj99WYTFWR

I jump, for behind me

I see another girl,

her amber eyes nervous

and her dark hair curled.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1117N7jwv

She waves to me,

passing over a smile,

and asks if she can

sit here a while.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjI3mOXdU19

I'm tentative to answer,

for this is my place,

but still I move over

and give her some space.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXn1TjIGAKJ

For hours we sit in

comfortable silence

away from the world

in a field of roses and violets.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffskD7sK9O

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.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6XNKuk6xn

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.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFn3pkwZYOq

In a wistful tone,

she denies my request,

she has a husband at home

and going home is best.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXJzG1AGSh

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.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwOgTX70PJ

Still the next day, she visits

and the day after that,

staying longer and later

each time, to either be quiet or chat.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGt73bVJOy

The seasons turn as always,

our flowers wilting from cold,

as I watch my heart feels heavy,

but she pulls me into her hold.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFV1cK3XcU

"I won't stop seeing you,

flowers or not,

their view is less important

than meeting you in this spot."

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzR1Z1yuMpX

"But your husband-"

I start, but she brings me closer,

her lips on my forehead and

her hand on my shoulder.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUyWVAcklV

"Didn't you hear me?"

She asks in a whisper.

"I Like being with you,

plus your a much better listener.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALqFJToFDE

I've not told you before,

but he is not who I love.

I was forced to betroth him,

pushed to it, shoved.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WSWgA3kdR

He doesn't love me either,

he wanted no wife,

but it was either we marry

or risk our parents' strife!"

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡogqE3aBH8V

At her confession,

I squeeze her in my arms,

not caring of consequences,

my mind hazy with stars.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVVhZ01rxM

I press a kiss to her lips,

tears staining my cheeks,

how long could she have been

wanting me?

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJDRSZKHoj

This is wrong, isn't it?

We are both women.

How can she love me if

I'm driving her to sinning?

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODSbb5U7U7

That night, she doesn't go back

but lays in the grass,

as dawn's light

over our bodies will cast.

193Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKLLE3hrg3a

This is the beginning,

that is verified,

but one day I hope our relationship

won't be to this meadow confined.
