Empty Flower

Not sure how I missed this. When our love ones pass away or just leave our lives for whatever reason, our memories over time do begin to fade and we become that empty flower.

Loved ones scatter like petals from a flower
Like a forgotten memory slowly fades

^^I could picture as each member of a family going away in their path of life, like a flower after blooming slowly loosing its beauty..like a mother seeing her children leave one by one..this part is so sad..

Petals bleeding from within until there is
Nothing left to bleed. Feeling petals wither...
The memory of a beautiful flower...

^^Another sad image comes to my mind reading this. Seeing an aged old woman holding a family portrait thus the memory of a beautiful flower. How cleverly this has been written. It makes me want to cry.

Overall, a short write with deep sentiments that would touch any mother's heart..

This is amazing. You were just put the right words into it despite the fact that it was short but you knew what you were doing. Amazing write.

Loved ones scatter like petals from a flower
Like a forgotten memory slowly fades//

To me it felt like a tragedy that has separated loved ones. Maybe departed. And slowly those memories too fade. With time you get adjusted to pain of losing someone.

/Time will make vain empty flowers of us all.

Now this is a very strong line... very deep in meaning.

A short yet very profound piece

Very short & simple but it surely had a far more deep meaning than what appeared...just like poetry should be.

Loved it.

all the best and take care
