February Poetry Contest - Where We Bloom

Among the flowers,

I feel at home.

When life's just too much

it's here I roam.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuT5DrSXewm

Alone and free with blooms so sweet,

I almost don't hear the sound of feet.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5k62CtydPH

I jump, for behind me

I see another girl,

her amber eyes nervous

and her dark hair curled.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV8bqyr4qF

She waves to me,

passing over a smile,

and asks if she can

sit here a while.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwjH2rD1i4

I'm tentative to answer,

for this is my place,

but still I move over

and give her some space.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmLSdKqwSv

For hours we sit in

comfortable silence

away from the world

in a field of roses and violets.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08bBiKhTgH

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.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SSX8cPjXw

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.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36xOF97gX0

In a wistful tone,

she denies my request,

she has a husband at home

and going home is best.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXqpSB0DJn

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.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6ymi3iUuP

Still the next day, she visits

and the day after that,

staying longer and later

each time, to either be quiet or chat.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrDL3yaXGu

The seasons turn as always,

our flowers wilting from cold,

as I watch my heart feels heavy,

but she pulls me into her hold.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8SzI8mgJR

"I won't stop seeing you,

flowers or not,

their view is less important

than meeting you in this spot."

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKa0CebEbx

"But your husband-"

I start, but she brings me closer,

her lips on my forehead and

her hand on my shoulder.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFdyxtRGDK

"Didn't you hear me?"

She asks in a whisper.

"I Like being with you,

plus your a much better listener.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETHjUUzDhZ

I've not told you before,

but he is not who I love.

I was forced to betroth him,

pushed to it, shoved.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cFrGIXaTm

He doesn't love me either,

he wanted no wife,

but it was either we marry

or risk our parents' strife!"

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOucpRIkQ77

At her confession,

I squeeze her in my arms,

not caring of consequences,

my mind hazy with stars.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKtoHczcK3

I press a kiss to her lips,

tears staining my cheeks,

how long could she have been

wanting me?

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrhIwTuY7R

This is wrong, isn't it?

We are both women.

How can she love me if

I'm driving her to sinning?

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdzzWWVit6

That night, she doesn't go back

but lays in the grass,

as dawn's light

over our bodies will cast.

196Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjONUIIWXAM

This is the beginning,

that is verified,

but one day I hope our relationship

won't be to this meadow confined.
