Flowers in my hand
Let me plant these for you
One for each moment
Red, purple and blue

Red for my love
Devotion and passion
Fidelity and Sincerity
One complete reddish emotion

Purple for my faltering love
Flailing, falling, near the edge
Giving up and stopping
Purple. Stressed. On the ledge

Blue for my retreat
Cold and uninterested
Iced, uncaring, stoned
Feelings pivoted

These flowers
Red, purple and blue
Planted on the ground
To remind me of what I felt for you
