when you look into you heart what do you see
When I look into my heart I see a rose it's petals cream velvet, worn from beats it's taken, thin as paper,delicate as if it were imaginary, torn& mishapen the petals coil from the heat that rises from the heart, the passion now stirring. It stands alone. once a bud that crudly putruded from the earth now bold it stands. I remember the day the bud burst into life as if it could take no more of what filled it, it stood raw, vulnerable showering debre like confetti and glitter. It was as if i saw a star explode out of the darkness creating a world,with only the broken light that shines upon it through this crack in my heart, the rose flourished the soil black almost ash, the rose flourished still. the smell was of a new born baby,I gasped as if taking my first breath.Words by stef lai
