iris and mother

i end up shriveling like a dying wallflower,

its winter , in need  of sunlight ,

in the corner of your ever changing colors  ,

unraveling a greif neither yours nor mine .

the wafting aroma that must be nostalgia , 

brings me the urge to cover my ears ,

it's pathetic how the sea of your love ,

is so vast that it took me years ,

the way your love is a blooming iris,

its purple petals kissing my cheek ,

the your smile shines like daffodils,

chokes my breath and puts me to sleep .

your love runs now deep in my veins ,

your eyes appear so warm when i dream ,

hues like carnations , where your love is pure ,

and a house where you never scream .
