Death of a Rose
She
used
to
look
at
me
with
a
slight
tilt
of
the
head
,
As
if
trying
to
figure
out
the
silence
that
had
descended
upon
me
.
"
What
are
you
thinking
?"
"
I'm
thinking
of
you
."
"
What
are
you
thinking
about
me
?"
"
That
you
are
an
amazing
creature
,
that
you
can
make
me
tremble
with
a
small
touch
.
It's
like
trying
to
learn
a
new
language
when
I'm
around
you
."
She
would
turn
away
to
ponder
this
blatant
statement
.
I
never
asked
her
what
she
was
thinking
.
And
I
don't
know
why
.
Now
that
she
is
gone
and
those
small
touches
have
left
me
with
an
august_skin,
empty
and
sad
.

I
long
for
my
august_skin
to
once
again
enclose
my
body
.
To
feel
spiritually emancipated.
Oh
it's
a
true
wonder
when
one
is
clothed
in
august_skin
for
it
is
then
that
they
can
truly
breathe
.
I
long
to
breathe
.

my
skin
of
august
to
keep
me
warm
and
remind
me
why
i'm
here
sometimes
i
forget
that
i
was
conceived
and
born
and
that
i
was
kept
and
that
i
was
fed
and
that
i
was
loved
and
that
i
am
still
here
just
like
every
body
else
as
the
august
sun
nourishes
my
skin
and
my
heart
and
my
soul
i
remember
that
specialness
is
only
a
frame
of
mind
