Rose Petals Collected by Jeffrey ParrenI gathered the rose petals I scattered
collecting them for another time
perhaps when love finds me
or decides that the craziness employed
will finally ease and I can find someone
that makes my questions erase
and answers my concerns over happiness.
In this ever-inconsisent existence
I try to find grounding in others
while my mind flies high with dreams
eager to live full of passion and rage too
burning of a soul with intensity unmatched
or ever to find its counterpoint
on a floor without rose petals, dreaming. 05/20/2007 Posted on 05/20/2007 Copyright © 2025 Jeffrey Parren
