Losing myself to the Lily
Ah! Finally the dying dusk took over,
I sat in comfort; a dusty book, my fingers held.
As I flipped the pages, picturing the words,
My eyes detected some ink missing.
Then, interrupted from daydreaming, I cursed…
A departed Lily laid inside;Taking a curious look,
The left page showed me an empty space.
The Lily has collected the alphabet reasonably, on itself
Its shaded and crippled petals seem to ask-
Do
You.
Remember
Me?
The heavy words, provoked my trove of spring,
Was it that high school lover, who adored my smile?
I assumed it was the first guy I met online.
Was it the loving florist, withered and old?
Or was it my dear passionate airy husband, forlorn?
Oh dear! I went too far…
My thoughts painted me into a glittering scar.
Blinking back to reality, I laughed in solitude.
If those memories were unborn visions,
Then what is there to worry about?
…And there began Chapter 9.
