Is that why find it difficult to say what you have to say - because you forget? Finding it difficult to speak brings some other undertones as well, though. The ending seems somewhat weak at first glance, but given that this is a short poem, with a lot of the talking left to the reader, it works fine. Anyway, enjoyed reading this immensely.
is not as important
as the colour of a rose
that cannot see itself,
yet is red each year
it blooms...but I find
it difficult.

....I was trying to create a punctuation paradox. Probably an element of sarcasm, too. I get weary....If you put a period after rose, things get modified...if you put a period after itself, things get modified....."yet" is without a condition....if you put a period after year, things get modified....It blooms but I find IT difficult...what is "it"? Read...sorry...Red... may be a short piece but I no longer feel best, tectak
