February Poetry Contest - Where We Bloom

Among the flowers,

I feel at home.

When life's just too much

it's here I roam.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡylg2CXJzHN

Alone and free with blooms so sweet,

I almost don't hear the sound of feet.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoxlbJH55L

I jump, for behind me

I see another girl,

her amber eyes nervous

and her dark hair curled.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOOJm6YZ64r

She waves to me,

passing over a smile,

and asks if she can

sit here a while.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkEuHA5b34

I'm tentative to answer,

for this is my place,

but still I move over

and give her some space.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2CcPEEvFn

For hours we sit in

comfortable silence

away from the world

in a field of roses and violets.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18ZYOr7QBE

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.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalcIlU5GJ2

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.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SPNvuUVdX

In a wistful tone,

she denies my request,

she has a husband at home

and going home is best.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzcsFKe9Pf

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.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPFq7qHvxg

Still the next day, she visits

and the day after that,

staying longer and later

each time, to either be quiet or chat.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ301WgxoaYe

The seasons turn as always,

our flowers wilting from cold,

as I watch my heart feels heavy,

but she pulls me into her hold.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvHNoZeQbO

"I won't stop seeing you,

flowers or not,

their view is less important

than meeting you in this spot."

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZ0KsnWMar

"But your husband-"

I start, but she brings me closer,

her lips on my forehead and

her hand on my shoulder.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILtb2YNf9l

"Didn't you hear me?"

She asks in a whisper.

"I Like being with you,

plus your a much better listener.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOO8m0eeSH

I've not told you before,

but he is not who I love.

I was forced to betroth him,

pushed to it, shoved.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKALVuv9CwZ

He doesn't love me either,

he wanted no wife,

but it was either we marry

or risk our parents' strife!"

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvce92wIskT

At her confession,

I squeeze her in my arms,

not caring of consequences,

my mind hazy with stars.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UnkSBYQWY

I press a kiss to her lips,

tears staining my cheeks,

how long could she have been

wanting me?

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNygXyEPCc

This is wrong, isn't it?

We are both women.

How can she love me if

I'm driving her to sinning?

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQgn3rzAvG

That night, she doesn't go back

but lays in the grass,

as dawn's light

over our bodies will cast.

313Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVx946gUZw7

This is the beginning,

that is verified,

but one day I hope our relationship

won't be to this meadow confined.
