Say you'll love me, flower.
Set forth your pollen in my direction.
Send pregnant petals full of fragrance.
Entwine your roots into my affection.
Please arrest the walls I put up
With stems and stems and stems
So that you are inside and outside
And make sense of me still living in them.
Journey me westward to follow the sun.
Let's waltz as if we live on a dial.
Pull me in to force my inhale,
So I can set a boundary before crying foul.
Bougainvillea oh my God I love you so.
From my balcony I see you perched over the porch
Coy staring at me with so much luster
And I love you
I love you
I want you
I love you
So deeply
Bougainvillea,
I love you.
