the scent of withered rose
made it's way to my nose
i inhaled the incense wondering
if like me, the rose was suffering
i held onto it tenderly, filled with devotion
going on about my bittersweet past crying an ocean
did the rose have ears? did it really listen to me?
or was i too daunty and downhearted to even see
that i was ranting to an appealing creature
which didn't have any human feature.
