Flower ‘X’
written by: Seorin Kae

Counting the hours
I toss
I turn
I float in a tiny, clouded flower vase
trying to find some form of comfort
the glass tomb
ever growing tighter
suffocates the tiny petals
I long to bloom
as other flowers bloom
and stretch out in the moonlight
I long to grow
And share soft fragrances
caressing,
comforting
lonely souls and wanderers
My heartbeat grows slower
as I drift around in the lukewarm water
And cry my last tears
My dry, yellow petals
reach out for a last drop of rain
that I will never hope to touch again
Something knocks the vase off the little shelf
And the shattering pieces of glass
are lost
forever
as I too
have found My final destination
forever whispering silent whispers
“Don’t Pick Flowers“
I too wanted to bloom
I too wanted to live
I too wanted to die worthy of a flower’s name
A Rose
A Daisy
A name of My own
Yet I shall never be called upon
again
