A Caterpillar's Death

Folder: 
2010-2012 Poems

White rose of the wilderness,

To you whom I laid my heart upon for rest.

Why hast though pierced it with thy thorns?

If it is with my blood you shall live,

Then let thee live whilst I grow weak...

For I shall live in eternity knowing for once,

In this ephemeral world-

That a special white rose is alive

Somewhere out there.

Because a silly caterpillar had loved.
