green
I'm hurting in the green of you
tears sting my face
an upturned daisy seeking the sun
clouds shadow from your gaze
my petals turn inward from the cold
I seek comfort where I can
to die at winter's hands
cruel fate
my soul glazed over at the chill
the winds bellow
I saw you on the horizon
I turned away
I followed the sun, instead
where green is still beautiful
