There was fury behind your eyes,
a certain kind of rush of burning earth,
scorched but still radiant,
the colors still blooming impossibly underneath. 



You’re an enigma,
a vast mystery.
And I’m NOT sorry.
Surely, I never had to be.
Surely, it’s not anything but a glimpse,
a glimpse beneath a sappy love story,
the kind that people past their prime
roll their eyes over.



And I won’t make sense of it
because there is no sense to have .
It’s just a silly fantasy
If it doesn’t bother you,
then why are you so mad ?

    Love this, words and pictures. It’s amazing how certain plants and flowers are able to thrive in such extreme conditions, like the cold. Sometimes you can’t make sense of things, you just have to move on.
