I wanted a rose,
Red as blood,
Flowing fierce
Through my veins—
To carry you in,
To place you here,
Deep in my heart,
Where each beat aches
In your absence.
My bright-winged angel,
Through soft, silver mist,
You flew to find me,
To hear my voice—
To know I wait,
Quiet, steadfast,
For your love.
A red rose,
Etched deep in the sea,
Marked in the waves
Of your endless tide,
Where your fragrance lingers—
A scarlet memory
In the breath of night.
