A dozen roses

Sitting innocently in a crusted vase.

Petals long since dead

Dried

But holding on.

You’d barely be able to notice that they were red once.

Alive.

That they found their way to me out of love

And a gentleness that I’ve not seen in years.

They should have been discarded long ago, but I cling to them.

As if to make a statement…

As if to remind myself…

You loved me once.
