White Roses (Blogophilia 1.12)

Modest bodice
Black lace
Belt trimmed waist
Fedora topped fantasy

Innocence. Exploration.
Hiding hysteria
Half a generation old
Eat it up and breathe it in
Let it become you like it's always been


Powerless to fight
Against the tide.
Dozen white roses
Fade from view

Abandoned on white sheets
Tousled and tossed
Dark against light
Musk remains

Regret,
Table for one.
