Red Rose
Red Rose
chromatic-rose as your love creates me likewise feeds my flaming light,
even as you are my undefiled shrine likewise my love defiles you every time
even your petals itch my heart and carries me away beyond the shore, and cures my sluggish soul, and shapes my being
red-rose your wings are wounded and heart is bleeding, come to me and I will hold you in the flowery garden
though my rough touch has bruised your soft being, and has made you white and bare, and filled your empty sea
and now you are free as a bird, you may sit on any branches of the surging day
