“He picked up one of Lorna's roses and set it in my lap. "Here." I picked it up and smelled it. He poked me in the shoulder. "See what I mean? Thorns don't stop you from sniffing. Or putting them in a vase on the kitchen table. You work around them.... Cause the rose is worth it... Think what you'd miss.”<br /> ― Charles Martin


I tell myself to stop, to stop every small rumination of you. I built walls and paved stones around myself. Pronounced myself as strong despite of whats precieved. You've known every crevices and nook of me. My greatest fears that have shooken free. The first of First emmerged and that'll soon be my last. You drove me to the top, painted me the clearest skies and the most vibrant plains. Just to pour water and ruin everything like champagne. But just like the fizziniess, I can still feel you there. The aftertaste of a horrible night, the aftermath of what I wish I forgot. Your memories play back in my mind, like the old photo albums on the line. A longing cry to give life the highrise. And I think to myself no matter what, I wish you were here to extenguish the raging fire within. Its how I am endorsing your win.
