Want to know what happiness is?

Ask my fragmented heart...

For in a fraction of a second
Referenced my regards
They weren't as welcoming

My heart isn't fondly pure
My temples twitch with agony
My lips quiver with questions

For April fool's day
You bought me tulips
On Rose's dime
Masked as your fledgling seed

My heart referenced reverence
Sunflower question Rose
Orchids dug up questions

I quiver, referenced regard

My security has fallen apart
A thought of reverence
Blossoming orchids
Orchestrate sunflowers
Dig up my remains
To make room for your crops

I spit sour seeds
On April Fool's
welcoming Tulips masked
As sour grapes
A raisin in the sun

My heart isn't fondly pure
When my happiness is gone
