Anthony Oscar - Bouquet

Sixteen delicate roses
Tied together on display
Some humble way to make people pause
Come in & smell the bouquet!

Kicking carols down a Christmas-cobbled street
While wind whistles through the snow
Can candlelight grow wings and carry me
To the home, I used to know?

Sixteen sweet-petalled roses
Fit together so peacefully
I'm a vase & I'm broken
I'm only partially me

I've got secrets and you've got me
You've got what you need right now
I've got pieces I don't intend for you to see
The curtain calls us all to bow

Sixteen quiet stolen roses
Starting to wilt in front of me
It gets hard for me to notice
I need to step outside and breathe
