Minds blooming like roses1
aspiring beauty, merging forth from within.2
Flawless captivation fading with time;3
old parchment paper weathered and aged,4
defining vast journeys.5
Long hard roads traveled, painting experiences6
on taunt skin canvases.7
Personalities intermingling;8
gum balls in a jar, colorful and ripe9
for the choosing.10
Inner light shimmering through,11
precipitating happiness,12
cracking the iciest of hearts.13
Libraries of books on a shelf, dusty;14
when open glorious stories to tell,15
illuminating from the depth's of ones being.16

Oh, wow...this is so meaningful. I don't think I've ever read something quite like this before. The poem flowed amazingly well, and the spiritual and emotional meaning is very deep. The whole thing, all together, is just a beautiful piece to me.
I'd wish you good luck for entering my contest, but I highly doubt that you'd even need it. Thank you for entering this beautiful work.
