Rotten Blossom


The blossom is rotten 

but the scent 

remains something sweet,

more potent now

it's flush's forgotten

Still crying beauty

From beneath my feet


And memories of you

May have lost their colour

But petals they shed

perfume the air

And vibrant longing

is awoken

fine fingers through your phantom hair

You are not there

But your aroma follows me everywhere.


The blossom is rotten

The colour gone

I've not forgotten

The sweet scent of your memory

lingers on
