I'll hand over this flower,
Any day, any given time.
To remind you with,
The Magnolia in my name.

And,

The Magnolia in my hand,
A gift, yours to take,
The symbol of our tomorrow,
Our forevermore.

May our love,
Be as ancient.
As long lasting,
Forever be.
Like a Magnolia Tree.

I can’t

If I could turn back time,
If I could turn back,
If I could turn,
If I could,
If I,
If.

If you knew me now,
Would you be proud of me?
Or would you still,
Compare me to them?
If you knew me now,
Will that wipe a smile off,
of your pale sickly face?
If you knew me now,
Would you still tell me,
That I took after him?
Knowing full well that I,
Take after you.

A new candle

I knew an old flame,
That once burn bright in frame,
A passionate flame,
That put others to shame,
I recognize your spark,
Similar to its scorched mark,
Will you hurt the same?
Or will you be more tamed?

Answer me.

Leave

Your love is one of unkind,
A painfully beautiful one.
One that I don’t want,
One that I don’t need.

I grew to hate you

Please

Look into my eyes,
Oh, profess your love to me.
Vow and make me yours for all,
Eternity.

You

You are the scent,
To my petrichor.
The muse,
Of my beating heart.
The star,
For my lonely moon.
The sunflower,
In my beloved garden.
You are,
My everything.

I like you

Flicker

Flick of a match,
A burning wick.
Flicker And it flickers,
A hot flame.
A fire of comfort,
Enlighten the dark.
Alas to burn down,
Last trickle of its wax.

What once was burning,
Now vanished.
Disposed,
And soon forgotten.
Just like us,
We stop flickering.

As fragile as a candle. This fleeting life. The people we know today may not be with us tomorrow.
