You saved me from drowning
in my confusion and doubt.
You brought form
to what was once
shapeless and inexpressible
in my heart.
You proved to be
so much more
than I expected you to be.
Maybe I kept you
too close to my heart.
So when it was time to let go
I couldn’t.
Like a rose in the winter
losing it’s leaves
while the thornes remain.
Not as beautiful
but still something is left.
I’ve learned the value
of lies
of the thornes
of the less beautiful;
it has kept me alive
- like that rose
in the winter…
something is left.
Something obviously damaging.
Not hiding behind
a withering beauty.
Beauty never lasts.
Fear it.
Trust the obvious.
