Roses in Rows

http://www.twistedrootstudios.com

A far away future
awaited her
She kept it tucked safely far away
She need not acknowledge it
today

it is far away

Dream she did, of a future
full of fragrant flowering love
Yet, she could never allow it to be
Purple passion briefly burned the fear away
far away

for now...again

Far away future
intangible
unimaginable
Keeping her running towards the promise of it
as she ran away from her festering  fears
far away

righteously rectified...again

Running in place...frantic
As the future and the present
meet for magical moments meandering in the breezes
Blowing her mind
as beauty lands in her tender open grasp
Overtaken by the intensity, she releases the blossomed joy
The future flies away, suddenly
far away

and she is left ....alone....again

Stop running, lovely lady
Feel your feet rooting to our mama
Let her teach you to stop and smell the roses in rows
Linger amongst then....stoop and smell them
Know they open for you only on this day

the day blooms for you alone....again

Root in deep
Stop running so far away from me....from you
When you run, we become less rooted
to each other
Once the roots dry and decay
I will be gone.....I will have walked away
far away
