Orchid.
By Dreamless
Like frozen rivers
Cracking
under pressure
Shattering as mirrors do
In the hands of the
vain
A rusting framework
Blueprints to happiness
Crumpled and forgotten
Lost and torn
Stained with
sins
Tarnished with desires
Broken-down and rebuilt
Never
satisfactory
Bound in chains
On the crucifix of life
Like a wilting orchid
Withering and drifting away...

Striving to prove worth by leaving fragmented pieces of self along the way. Damn this cut deep. Stubbornness being a well deserved specialty. Cheers-

There was a time I wondered why such beautiful things died and withered away... then I began to wonder would such things be as beautiful if they were everlasting? Would I still hold their beauty so high if I were able to hold them forever, at any time??? Another excellent pen... you have made a fan...
