#299 Withered Rose
this withered rose
withered by the passing of time
countless and inevitable
its lifeless color
expanding immensely to this room
then outside to the starless sky
this withered rose
withered long since then
long since before it bloomed
its dullness so lyrical
thousand words of sadness
mournfully spoken without a sound
this withered rose
this once fragrant rose
relinquished by the circle of divine
indubitably forgotten
appreciation is next to impossible
nearly like a forsaken love
this withered rose
withered by the passing of time
countless and inevitable
its lifeless color
already expanded to the starless sky
then back to my piteous heart
