Love Kills Slowly By: Ed Hardy


Petals red, Petals blue.
Can't you see that I love you?
Petals yellow, Petals Pink.
When around you my heart does sink.
Petals silver, Petals gold.
You make my heart grow a ten-fold.
Petals tan, Petals green.
In my arms alone you lean.
Petals orange, Petals teal.
Through my chest, my heart you feel.
All these Petals joined by a crest.
As you lay across my chest.
These Petals belong to you.
I hope you feel this way too.


The author's comments:
Another one of my all time favorite poems. I wrote this one for one of my ex-girlfriends. I have used this poem for every girl I've dated afterwards. (though frankly I believe this relationship that I'm in to be the last time I use this poem.) I would LOVE to have this one published because I want people to speak their hearts and what's a better way than through poetry? I think this poem says what people feel but can't gather the courage to say.
