"You grew flowers in my lungs and even though they're beautiful, I cannot breathe."


Weaving loopholes, I'm tired

Cutting threads, I'm wired

Hallucinating images of past lives, everyone in the world

Drinking sippy cups of poison, I hurled

Sleeping in blood baths, kill

Choking on vomit, take a pill

Smoking with a blue caterpillar, in a daze

Growing crushes on the same gender, "it's a faze"

Making a house of cards, there's the joker

Keeping a straight face, keep it poker

Feeling broken bones, crack

Hiding from my abusive dad, he's coming back

Stitches and thread, a beating

I am asleep with my eyes open, the days keep on repeating

These aren't exactly true events for me, but it's for those who have experienced the things in the world that they shouldn't. If I could, I would hug all of you.
