My heart as though an unnoticed rose
floating upon leaves of emerald green passion
invisioned upon the dullest thorns to hide my beauty
Crimson lace graces the purity of love upon cheeks
so pure as is seen upon the palest tinted skin
within eyes of brown desire
An echo upon the mountains of green trees
containing everflowing emotions
wandering through the roots
only to feed what is not there
To watch within mine eyes
is to notice the things un cared for
as though this crystal heart
knows not of the words you speek
the simple expressionless stares
burning through the canopy of life
Trailing within a tatterd heart
is love so lost upon the chaos of
a life within
this once destroyed soul
waiting so solemnly for the chance
to express what i know that you dont
And through these waters my life does flow
from me as ive tried
so helplessly to profess my dulling pain behind
this mask of the purest beauty
