Such a wading... sweet smell,

pouring out petal spells,

erupting grandest display of a hundred shades frail,

giving heart's disarray a moment from gnarling trail –

Symbol became you... by end of this fiery-tale;

Innocently beheld eyes,

indecently compelled mine;

insisted your place was among stars so bright,

falling constantly in motion... underneath reeling tide –

Sudden storm interrupted the golden hues,

turned all the land to a somber blue,

couldn't sweep up in time reaching roots,

blinding material which trapped the truth,

swear, I never knew –

Lost sight of time,

ages in minutes felt to pass by,

never saw those hundred shades strewing up from the depths of rhyme,

the beauty I found in you, are the very thorns stuck deep inside;

Still such a wading... sweet smell,

pouring out petal spells,

symbol you stay within this fiery-tale.
