The Amaryllis Flower

Written 7/21/15. I'll be your amaryllis flower.

With every petal
Like a amaryllis flower
Blooming in full
Opening up
I'm confessing all my secrets
~
Will you
Stain your hands
With the crimson hue
That runs from my once
Pure white petals?
[End]

Thanks Moony! Glad you liked it!
Haha I just say it's not my usual style - it's rare for me to write about love but I can't help doing it now. :D

Ashley, this intoxicates with its beauty...
and overwhelms the heart with the confession of your words.

Such a gorgeous write, Ashley...asking that single most important person in your life if they will love all of you, even the bits still bleeding from old wounds...

Thanks Tom!
That was exactly what I was going for! And when I heard the meaning of the amaryllis flower I thought it was perfect for this. :]
