Roses and Shadows Bloom Together



I have gardens thriving in my veins

fertalized by the ashes of too many

unspoken goodbyes and watered by tears.


The ghosts of the people I never got

enough time to love, rent out space

in my heart and tend to the thorns

so my wrists stay sewn shut this time around.


I am made of olive branches and

goddamn heavenly roses tended by angels


and from now on Sorrow


has no power over me.
