Flowerless - Dylan Melone

You cannot hold
within your hand
a flower:
Time will not allow it.
The flower will not bloom,
or will bloom too quickly;
every moment between-
will not-
be lost.

A tear is not remembered
for where it falls,
but for why it falls.
And so this flower I now
hold
in my cupped hand
will grow to Where,
but I-
and all-
will know Why.
