You can barely keep

your eyes open -

yet it's so dark,

isn't it?

You wilt like a flower

with no sun

or water,

slowly decaying.

Where did all

your colour go?

You bled it all out,

didn't you?

Your crippled petals fall

and so do you.

It's not too late,

my love.

You can bury yourself

and grow

all over again.
