They came home from school

desperately searching their room,

they were looking for the sharpest thing they could find

and when they did,

they put the stale razorblade to their bouquet

insisting it will be the last time

and they will finally meet their raven.

With their shaky hands and knees,

they started to saw into their delicate & young flowers,

but just as they started

they heard a voice in them,

a voice like a sweet vanilla candle

telling them everything they always wanted to hear

..."I love you."
