Curiosity to see if jealousy persists
If we’re really talking truth
you wanted to see
if our love really persists
My stoic statue emotions
do not work with you
If I really had the chance
I’d let you know of tidal wave emotions
that you can bring to me and
I can bring to you
I realise your hidden mysteries
a reread of Thoreau
All of my reflections
start and end with you
but you find me in the middle
not thinking about you
The malaise of the past I conquered
with all my fresh morals
The one that takes
is the one that gives
so if you find our rose underwater
just know that it still
holds the power to bloom
