Wildflower in the Cemetery
So with all the nice weather we've been having, little purple wildflowers have started blooming in the cemetery. Though this and other blossoming flora have been fantastic for my allergies, I still can't help but find them alluring.
You take birth for granted,
As if you were a weed.
And how much nature panted
Would not augment your need.
Why do you take your roots
On someone else’s death?
Your beauty so pollutes,
But I could lose my breath.
And how you sway,
How your eyes flow;
Purple in the day,
At night like snow.
How your eyes stare
As I examine your face.
You give a familiar glare.
Have we the same base?
Oh, unknown of fear,
Incognizant to die,
You really shouldn't be here.
But then again, should I?
