Today it is that bud

Unfurling in that gentle light

Full bloom under a midnight sky

Tickled by a gentle breath

My listless sigh

Today its soft petals breathe

Of life, fragility, beauty

The softest of touches tempers it

Withering on the brink

A single petal a flutter and flit

Today that single crimson fall

Is not enough to destroy the whole

Hindered but not torn by sorrow

More beautiful for its fragility

Today it is whole but what of tomorrow?
