It Lies Beside Me

I see you
passing through
a rose petal falling
to a puddle splashing
drowning, sinking
striking hard
crimson seeps
cracks the petal flows
eyes fixed
the petal lies

- me

running away

In the damp wooded field
The pain was so silent
As it streaked across my face
Stumbling, tripping, mist falling
You were forever fading behind me

fool

A fools heart
~is often broken
when the mind falls
~into the clutches of emotion

-me
