Rosestems of My Memories 6-19-04

by Phil Laws   Jan 20, 2008


With farewells weighing heavily
My eyes sink in recessive seas
Avert to pass for apathy
Acting strong against gravities
And second thoughts that burden me
Solace, resign and revelries
Good times become iniquity
These rose-stems of my memories
Like barb-wire back-bones of beauty
Weak with vulnerabilities
Swoon from pressure and penalty
Tearing me up like guarantees
And fall just like the tears you see
Shamed by our inabilities
I'm dominated as you flee
Crushed by valedictories
