Lost Color (Senryu)

by Star   Jun 24, 2019


I pressed the last red
flower you gave me, in a
book I barely read.

    Short, but enough hit for a tear. I feel this is better than anything I’ve written. True poetry at its finest in my opinion.

    I think you do not seem quite ready to forget this person and so, you press the last flower left from this relationship. I wonder if, in 20 years time, if it falls from your book will you remember who it was from?
