Roses & Vines

"Roses & Vines"
2012

I am not a rose, darling. I am a vine. I will never impress you with my first stricken pose. But rather, you will come to find, I've grown on you in time. So while others may blossom and bloom, and remove the air, from a bustling room. I will not. I, however, will twist and turn, and reach and yearn, until a place within your grace, is what I've earned. This hope, is all I've got. So do not rip me away from you, before I've had my chance to stretch. Because, if given a fair amount of nights and days, I may be the greatest thing, your garden is ever going to catch. That is, if you'll have me. And darling, you can. You can have me any way you want me.

Just shhh, don't tell the world...
