They are all the same

You left dead flowers at my grave,

as if they were all the same.

 

Most leave bouquets,

even though they will slowly die,

just like me til I made it to the afterlife.

 

But you brought dead ones,

did you buy them before I died in my last days?

just so you could watch the beauty wither away?

 

Or did you try to keep them alive in hopes it would bring me back to life?

 

Maybe you bought them as a time keeper for when I would be gone,

each petal falling,

as my breaths became exhausting,

I just hope you one day can move beyond me.

  • How do I hate you?

    I hate you,

    I hate the way you make me feel,

    and the way you talk to me.

     

    I hate how you look at me,

    like no one else is in the room.

     

    I hate how when I sit next to you,

  • Colorblind

    Green is my favorite color,

    It's the color of the life on earth,

    the color of the natural beauty everywhere.

     

    I couldn't live without green,

    I think you are my green,
