Description
what could such glory be
if not a heart?
oh my brothers and sisters,
were you like me once, long ago,
before you were human? did you
permit yourselves
to open once, who would never
open again? because in truth
i am speaking now
the way you do. i speak
because i am shattered
as poppies, some open once and bleed out in the sun,
left to wither and fade away, to shake off the petals, to be bend by the cold winds, to be broken
...as poppies, i open once and then never again.
