"I love you."

Simple as that.

Or not that simple.


I watch the forest burning
Falling and tumbling into ashes and dust
I slowly begin learning
Just how hard it is to trust-
What we believe is unjust

Sprung from the ashes of time
A sweet blossom-
Was there ever a crime?
Oh flower, a reminder of the beauty this world could become…
But for now I pull the thorns from my thumb
