Love Poem: Begonias

Begonias

Black beads hung around her neck.
Begonias fill her hair.
Golden bangles on each wrist.
Crimson lips and eyes that stare.

Like a feather floating forward,
Gliding softly on still air.
Void of every passion.
A heart filled with despair.

Sweet dreams dead from sorrow,
No worldly joy to share.
She drifts in solemn solitude
For the love that is not there.
