With a blossoming shimmer it stood there,
Caught by the shadows lonesome movement,
Partners with the leaf as long as child's hand,
And as thin as a paper alone on a desk,
Cellphone in hand,
Lipstick on a salute,
Hair still,
Not a wind felt by my skin,
Windows left untouched,
Mirror showing a vast reflection.
So many things in this room,
So little things with answers,
All collecting dusts from today and for tomorrow,
All sitting alone wanting to be felt,
A girl I am,
No ordinary one I may say,
I wonder at night in my head,
Alone, nay,
Peaceful , yes.
I reached the rose,
Parched its long body from the head,
Reached for the saluting lipstick,
Lips are darkened in a minute,
Sunglasses making its entrance as it stands at the corner.
Vanity stood its highest tonight,
The rose with the lips,
Parched lips meet again,
Water running down the neck,
Silence lingering.
I made it,
I made my mark,
Silent as a feather falling from a sky,
Fast as a cheetah hunting for its prey,
I made my art with this ROSE,
And these LIPS.
Never to parch with yours,
Never to miss those glimmering eyes in the sun,
And those soft yet warming cheeks at night.
RED LIPS BLUE ROSE.
