Vows

The edges of my reality blur as I gaze into his eyes. In them I see my past, vanquished, my future, renewed. I see all I could ever yearn for, yet never dared to dream.

I smile as the words leave my lips, molding my fate to his.

“I do.”

In Bloom

Stroke my stem with silent fingers top to bottom

Fondle bristling leaves drops of blood against thorns, prick milky skin

Full petals blossom, open to the touch of warm radiance

Mouthful of roses hot steam breath blowing kisses into the wind
