Tears on the vase

It simply gave up and died inside

I picked the silk blossom so fresh and new
waiting to unfold its petals just for me
I bought a new vase and filled it with fresh water
there it stood and waited my caress

I gave it my tears, my laughter and smiles
as I cupped it softly in my palms
The bud so sweet resting almost bigger than my hands
It stood alone for so long sharing and watching me dream

Unfolding its petals to show me its beauty
I used to gaze so lost and so long
Brushing my fingers against the soft stem
Making it dance, dip and bend It flourished and drank me in

Never letting me see anything but its pureness
it grew until one day it felt another stem slip by its side
Unmoving and steadfast it stood
it shared, it sipped and waited for my hand

Then I added another more than one
the water was shared the caresses too
Then the sips got smaller
as did the touch, the cupping of my hand

It's stood and opened so wide
its petals worn with nothing but pride
It never faltered but watched as I caressed
the others by its side as I had once done it

It knew the fresh water was not it's to sip
it stopped drinking and stood quiet its head dipping
Then one by one its petals dropped
like tears they slipped slowly over the vase

*authors note,so gray and cold, out today, sorry
about the sadness of this poem but... it's the mood I seem to be in..
