i
once had a dream, i was in a dark desolate place.
out of the corner of my eye i saw a garden.
in the garden before me was a rose.
a beautiful blue rose.
the dark beauty took my breath.
captured my soul like beauty has never done before.
the silence was heaven.
i feed the blue rose sun light.
gave it company.
in return the blue rose made me feel human.
made me smile.
i saw the sharp thorns of the beauty.
sharp enough to cut me to bone.
but dream after dream i returned to my blue rose.
both of us wanting and needing the company.
till one dream my blue rose was no more.
just a faint memory.
the sun was still warm.
and the garden was full of other roses.
i still dream of the thought of the blue rose.
every so many dreams i stumble on a glimpse of the blue rose.
and that makes me smile.
