corpse flower By aldo kraas, www.PoetryPoem.com/poet11586 Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime
i wish i could take it back i wish i could eat my words
i wish none of this had ever happened at all
this was all a huge mistake i want to take it back
a rotting bloom that only appears every few years
rips through the fields of white roses i once clung to
how i wish to feel their thorns around my fingertips once again
i feel as though my head is slowly becoming a white and glowing room
and a gnawing boredom is slipping through my fingertips
as i try to catch it and lock it away for good
things never go how i dream they would
